Abstract
The Diabetes and Cardiovascular Disease study group of the Société francophone du diabète (SFD, French Society of Diabetes) in collaboration
with the Société fran¸ caise de cardiologie (SFC, French Society of Cardiology) have devised a consensus statement on the care of the hypergly-
caemic/diabetic patient during and in the immediate follow-up of acute coronary syndrome (ACS); in particular, it includes the different phases of
ACS [the intensive care unit (ICU) period, the post-ICU period and the short-term follow-up period after discharge, including cardiac rehabilitation]
and also embraces all of the various diagnostic and therapeutic issues with a view to optimalizing the collaboration between cardiologists and
diabetologists. As regards diagnosis, subjects with HbA
1c
greater or equal to 6.5% on admission may be considered diabetic while, in those with
no known diabetes and HbA
1c
less than 6.5%, it is recommended that an OGTT be performed 7 to 28 days after ACS. During hospitalization in
the ICU, continuous insulin treatment should be initiated in all patients when admission blood glucose levels are greater or equal to 180 mg/dL
(10.0 mmol/L) and, in those with previously known diabetes, when preprandial glucose levels are greater or equal to 140 mg/dL (7.77 mmol/L)
during follow-up. The recommended blood glucose target is 140–180 mg/dL (7.7–10 mmol/L) for most patients. Following the ICU period, insulin
treatment is not mandatory for every patient, and other antidiabetic treatments may be considered, with the choice of optimal treatment depend-
ing on the metabolic profile of the patient. Patients should be referred to a diabetologist before discharge from hospital in cases of unknown
diabetes diagnosed during ACS hospitalization, of HbA
1c
greater or equal to 8% at the time of admission, or newly introduced insulin therapy
or severe/repeated hypoglycaemia. Referral to a diabetologist after hospital discharge is recommended if diabetes is diagnosed by the OGTT, or
during cardiac rehabilitation in cases of uncontrolled diabetes (HbA
1c
≥ 8%) or severe/repeated hypoglycaemia.
