What the trial is, and whether it could suit you
Glycemic control in surgical patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) receiving parenteral nutrition represents a major clinical challenge. This randomized controlled trial evaluates the comparative effectiveness and safety of hybrid closed-loop (HCL) insulin delivery versus conventional insulin pumps combined with continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) in perioperative T2DM patients requiring short-term parenteral nutrition.
