In-FI Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Group 2 insulin glargine and FiaspExperimental Treatment3 Interventions
Group 2 will receive basal insulin glargine as dosed in Group 1. Meal insulin Fiasp dosing will be calculated the same way as Novolog dosing. If the premeal BG is ≥ 150 mg/dL, additional Fiasp will be administered based off the correctional scale at the same time as the prandial insulin.
Group II: Group 1 insulin glargine and NovologActive Control3 Interventions
Group 1 will receive daily basal insulin glargine with a scheduled bolus of meal insulin Novolog. Meal Novolog will be dosed at the time the subject starts to eat. If the premeal blood glucose (BG) is ≥ 150 mg/dL, additional Novolog will be administered based off the correctional scale at the same time as the prandial insulin. The dose of Novolog will be administered by the floor nurse as per usual standard of care.
