Glycemic Stability During the Intraoperative Period Among Patients With DM Undergoing CABG Surgery

Objectives: Intraoperative glycemic stability and control among patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery remains a significant concern. In this study, the intraoperative glycemic stability among diabetic patients undergoing CABG surgery was compared between patients who received an intravenous continuous insulin infusion (CII) for tight glycemic control with those who received an CII for conventional glycemic control, during the intraoperative period.

Research Design and Methods: This study implemented a quasi-experimental design with a convenience sample of 144 patients with DM undergoing CABG surgery at a major hospital in Amman, Jordan.

About this study

Objectives: Intraoperative glycemic stability and control among patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery remains a significant concern. In this study, the intraoperative glycemic stability among diabetic patients undergoing CABG surgery was compared between patients who received an intravenous continuous insulin infusion (CII) for tight glycemic control with those who received an CII for conventional glycemic control, during the intraoperative period.

Research Design and Methods: This study implemented a quasi-experimental design with a convenience sample of 144 patients with DM undergoing CABG surgery at a major hospital in Amman, Jordan. Participants were randomly assigned to either a tight glycemic control group (n=72) or a conventional glycemic control group (n=72). Patients who received the tight glycemic control protocol had significantly more consistent and lower mean intraoperative BG levels than those who received the conventional glycemic control protocol. The tight glycemic control protocol resulted in significantly lower BG levels and fewer variations across each time-point and more consistent and stable BG levels than the conventional glycemic control protocol.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • adult Jordanian patients
  • diagnosed with DM
  • who had been scheduled to CABG surgery

Exclusion criteria

  • Participants who were immunosuppressed were excluded from the study.

Treatment and study plan

Continuous Insulin Infusion

Drug

This study aims to explore the hypothesis that diabetic patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery receiving intravenous continuous insulin infusion (CII) for tight glycemic control (110-149 mg/dl) protocol during the intraoperative period would have improved intraoperative glycemic stability, efficacy and consistency compared to patients receiving conventional glycemic control (150-180 mg/dl) protocol during the intraoperative period

Primary outcomes

  1. Intraoperative glycemic instability

    Time frame: every half hour for eight hours

    Intraoperative glycemic instability is defined as three consecutive readings of intraoperative blood glucose (BG) levels outside the pre-set targeted ranges of the protocols, whether higher or lower than the limits
