New hypoglycaemic therapy in frail older people with diabetes mellitus-phenotypic status likely to be more important than functional status.

Diabetes research and clinical practice - 1 Nov 2020

Frail older people are largely excluded from clinical trials and therefore glycaemic targets and optimum hypoglycaemic therapy in this group has not been fully investigated. Guidelines generally recommend tight glycaemic control in functionally fit individuals and relaxed targets in frail ones mainly due to the fear of hypoglycaemia. The newly introduced sodium glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors and the glucagon...
