AB Key  Clinical  Questions  Why  control  diabetes  and  hyperglycemia  in  the  hospital?  What  are  the  goals  of  glycemic  management  in  critical  care  and  noncritical  care  settings?  When  should  patients  be  treated  with  oral  agents,  with  subcutaneous  insulin,  and  with  continuous  insulin  infusions?  Is  it  safe  to  prescribe  subcutaneous  insulin  for  the  first  time  in  a  hospitalized  patient?  How  should  insulin  orders  be  adjusted  in  response  to  poor  inpatient  glucose  control?  What  should  be  considered  when  discharging  a  patient  with  diabetes  or  inpatient  hyperglycemia?  How  may  the  quality  of  glucose  management  be  improved  in  hospital  settings?
