AB Key  Clinical  Questions  What  are  the  types  of  adrenal  insufficiency?  What  are  normal  and  stress  production  levels  of  endogenous  corticocosteroids?  Which  patients  are  at  high  risk  for  development  of  adrenal  insufficiency  or  critical  illness-related  corticosteroid  insufficiency  and  therefore  may  benefit  from  physiologic  or  pharmacologic  steroid  treatment  of  their  illnesses?  For  those  patients  who  need  corticosteroid  supplementation,  which  agents  should  be  used,  at  what  dose  and  for  how  long?
