Novolog vs. Fiasp Insulin in Non-critically Ill Hospitalized Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

Insulin glargine doses will be determined by calculating the total daily dose (TDD) of insulin and providing 50% of the TDD as follows: start at 0.5 units/kg/day and subtract 0.1 unit/kg/day for 70+ yrs of age, renal insufficiency, pancreatic deficiency and add 0.1 unit/kg/day if hemoglobin A1c in \>10%

Novolog will be administered with each meal if premeal glucose is ≥ 150 mg/dL and at bedtime if glucose is ≥ 200 mg/dL by calculating an individualized insulin sensitivity factor for each subject per the following formula: 1500/total daily dose of insulin = sensitivity factor.

Fiasp will be administered with each meal if premeal glucose is ≥ 150 mg/dL and at bedtime if glucose is ≥ 200 mg/dL by calculating an individualized insulin sensitivity factor for each subject per the following formula: 1500/total daily dose of insulin = sensitivity factor.
