Challenging Cases in Inpatient Diabetes Management

Challenging Cases in Inpatient Diabetes Management - On Demand 2025

Bedside decisions shape outcomes in inpatient diabetes care. In this on-demand 2025 update, synthesize best practices to describe and demonstrate insulin starts and oral regimens; manage steroid-related glycemic swings, geriatric risk, and parenteral and enteral nutrition; and address peri-procedure use of SGLT2 inhibitors and GLP-1 RAs. We also provide equity-minded, lower-cost options that support safer discharge and cut readmissions.

Learning Objectives
After completing this activity, learners should be able to:

Describe best practices for insulin initiation and oral diabetes medication use in those newly diagnosed with diabetes to avoid hypoglycemia and increase adherence.
Demonstrate knowledge of inpatient management of steroid induced hyperglycemia, the geriatric population, and parenteral and enteral nutrition.
Demonstrate knowledge of the peri-procedure management of insulin, oral diabetes medications, and novel diabetes medications such as SGLT2-inhibitors and GLP-1 receptor agonists.
Describe common economic barriers for diabetes medications and demonstrate knowledge of medication regimens and resourcesÂ to help provide patients with insulin and diabetes medications on discharge.

Rapid Clinical Updates: Inpatient Management of Diabetes

Stress hyperglycemia turns routine admissions risky; transform that risk into reliable care. In this rapid update, recognize how inpatient glucose drives infections, ICU use, and length of stay, then apply evidence from landmark trials and ADA standards to design safer targets and replace sliding-scale with basal-based regimens. Master steroid and nutrition scenarios, avoid high-risk agents, consider modern adjuncts, and finish with a discharge playbook and a look to inpatient CGM.
