Called NICE-SUGAR trial ( NEJM 2009 ), conducted at 42 hospitals in Australia and New Zealand, it found that intensive glucose control actually harmed people, by frequently inducing severe hypoglycemia. But it’s hard, very hard, to feel like one is “doing nothing” while a patient in cardiogenic shock deteriorates.
