Chat Online01/04/2007· There is considerable variability in the adjustment of the insulin infusion. With the blood glucose declining, 7 of the 12 protocols have the insulin rate either increasing or staying virtually the same (≤1 unit/h adjustment). Most protocols deliver the bulk (>75%) of the total insulin dose when the blood glucose levels is ≥200 mg/dl.
