Treatment of Hyperosmolar Hyperglycemic State (HHS) in Adults
1. Initial Assessment
- Complete initial evaluation, including assessment of cardiovascular, respiratory, and mental status*
- Patients with HHS may present with stupor or coma
- If Glasgow Coma Scale score is ≤8, endotracheal intubation is generally required for airway protection
- Check capillary glucose to confirm hyperglycemia
- Start isotonic IV fluids (0.9% saline or buffered crystalloid): 1 L per hour
- Evaluate for precipitating cause(s)
2. IV Fluids
- Administer 0.9% saline or buffered crystalloid (approximately 1 L/hour, rate based on clinical assessment)
- Administer 0.9% saline or buffered crystalloid, rate based on clinical assessment
- Hemodynamic monitoring/pressors
- If serum glucose does not fall within 24h by at least 50 to 70 mg/dL in the first hour, double the IV or SUBQ insulin rate/dose
- Correct volume deficit within 8 hours
- Decline in serum glucose should not exceed 90 to 120 mg/dL per hour
- 0.45% saline (approximately 250 to 500 mL/hour)
- When serum glucose is <250 mg/dL (13.9 mmol/L), change to 5 to 10% dextrose with 0.45% saline at 150 to 250 mL/hour
- 0.9% saline (approximately 250 to 500 mL/hour)
- When serum glucose is <250 mg/dL (13.9 mmol/L), change to 5 to 10% dextrose with 0.45% saline at 150 to 250 mL/hour
3. Insulin
- Delay insulin initiation and give KCl until K+ is >3.5 mEq/L
- 0.05 units/kg/hr IV continuous insulin infusion
- Establish adequate kidney function (urine output approximately >50 mL/hour)
- If initial serum glucose is <250 mg/dL (13.9 mmol/L), add 5 to 10% dextrose to IV fluids upon treatment initiation
- Reduce regular insulin infusion to 0.02 to 0.04 units/kg/hour IV
- Keep serum glucose between 200 to 250 mg/dL (11.1 to 13.9 mmol/L) until resolution of HHS
- Refer to UpToDate topic on the treatment of HHS in adults for resolution criteria
4. Potassium
- Delay insulin initiation and give 10 to 20 mEq of KCl per hour until K+ >3.5 mEq/L
- Give 10 to 20 mEq KCl in each liter of IV fluid to keep serum K+ between 4 to 5 mEq/L
- Do not give KCl but check serum K+ every 2 hours
5. Ongoing Monitoring
- Check electrolytes, BUN, phosphorus, creatinine, and glucose every 2 to 4 hours until stable
6. Resolution & Transition to Subcutaneous Insulin
- After resolution of HHS and when patient is able to eat, initiate SUBQ multidose (basal-bolus) insulin regimen
- Continue IV insulin infusion for 1 to 2 hours after rapid-acting SUBQ insulin is begun to ensure adequate plasma insulin levels
- If short- or long-acting SUBQ insulin is initiated, continue IV insulin infusion for 2 to 4 hours
- In insulin-naive patients, start 0.5 to 0.8 units/kg per day (total daily dose), and adjust as needed
