The First Use of Live Continuous Glucose Monitoring in Patients on Extracorporeal Life Support

Abstract: This pilot study suggests that EGMS is a reliable tool for measuring continuous blood glucose in critically ill patients connected to an extracorporeal circuit, although important limitations exist. Potential applications of this technology include intensive glucose monitoring in patients on ECLS, cardiopulmonary bypass, and renal replacement therapy.

“…Finally, higher plasma glucose levels and a higher glucose turnover have been described when lactate-based solutions are employed [30]. It remains unclear whether or not glucose losses should be compensated, but current evidence suggests that keeping glycemia within normal range is beneficial [31]. …”

“…Only a few studies applied CGM in critically ill patients [6,34,37,[128][129][130][131][132][133][134][135]. In a pilot study we investigated the accuracy and applicability of continuous glucose monitoring (GlucoDay ® , A. Menarini Diagnostics, Florence, Italy) in the medical ICU.…”

“…An Extracorporeal Glucose Monitoring System (EGMS ® , Medtronic Minimed, Northridge, CA) was tested in patients on extracorporeal bypass [132]. It demonstrated a 7-10 min lag of EGMS glucose values in conditions of fast changing glycemia.…”

“…Special attention is needed when nutrition (in particular enteral nutrition) is withdrawn in case of hypoglycemia because glucose is easily removed from the plasma. In the future, continuous glucose monitoring in patients on extracorporeal treatment, including CRRT, may be the best option to anticipate for dysglycemia problems [21]. …”
