Perioperative Stress Hyperglycemia in General and Vascular Surgery Patients

NCT04862234

RandomizedParallel-groupDouble-blindPrevention

Summary

Hyperglycemia is seen in approximately 30% of patients who do not have a history of diabetes and undergo general surgery. Hyperglycemia in this setting is associated with increased risk of postoperative complications. The purpose of this study is to investigate risk factors for developing high sugars during the time of surgery, and if these high sugars can be prevented by the use of an injectable diabetes medication (dulaglutide) prior to surgery.
