Intravenous (IV) insulin: In patients assigned to IV insulin, SQ basal insulin was discontinued and IV insulin was started at 21:00 on the day of enrollment. Patients continued to receive subcutaneous prandial insulin. All patients receiving IV insulin were managed using our hospital's universal nursing run guideline, which has a target glucose of 6.1-8.3 mmol/l. Patients were transitioned from the infusion after 48 hours using approximately 70% of the estimated basal insulin infusion requirement with 4 hours of overlap.

Basal bolus insulin (4 injections per day) In subjects who were insulin naïve, the total daily dose of insulin was calculated as 0.4 or 0.5 unit/kg if the enrollment glucose was <11.1 mmol/l or >11.1 mmol/l respectively. In subjects who were not insulin naive, the total insulin dose was calculated as 100% or 120% of the total daily insulin dose at admission in subjects with an enrollment glucose of <11.1 mmol/l or >11.1 mmol/l respectively. Basal and prandial insulin were administered in approximately equal total daily doses with correction dosing and adjustments based upon a published algorithm. The target glucose range was 5.6-8.3 mmol/l.
