*Continuous glucose monitoring glycemic metrics: TIR, time in range (70–180 mg/dL [3.9–10.0 mmol/L]); TBR, time below range (<70 mg/dL [<3.9 mmol/L]).

†Upon discharge, consider reinstating home treatment if inpatient treatment was more complex. ADL, activities of daily living.

ASCVD, atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease; CKD, chronic kidney disease; eGFR, estimated glomerular filtration rate. *Basal insulins: glargine U-100 and U-300, detemir, degludec, and human NPH. †Prandial insulins: short-acting (regular human insulin) or rapid-acting (lispro, aspart, and glulisine). ‡Premixed insulins: 70/30, 75/25, and 50/50 products. §Examples of noninsulin agents include metformin, sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors, dipeptidyl peptidase 4 inhibitors, and glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists.
