Abstract

Safe, effective glycemic control (GC) can improve outcomes, but is difficult to achieve consistently. Glycemic level and variability are independently associated with mortality. Patho-physiologically, the negative outcomes of dysglycemia are associated with exposure and repetition to high glucose levels, indicating that metrics of exposure might accurately capture outcome.
