Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

To determine whether intraoperative tight glycaemic control can reduce postoperative infection, morbidity and mortality

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Hyperglycaemia develops frequently in patients undergoing cardiac surgery, especially following cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Recent evidence suggests that acute hyperglycaemia adversely affects immune function, wound healing and cardiovascular function.

Tight glycaemic control (TGC)

TGC used hyperinsulinaemic normoglycaemic clamp with modified glucose-insulin-potassium to control blood sugar. The insulin (HumulinTM R, Lilly pharma, Germany) was diluted with normal saline to the concentration 1 IU. mL-1 and was infused continuously throughout the operations at a fixed rate of 0.3 IU. kg-1.h-1 but the maximal rate was 20 IU/ h. A separate mixture of glucose 25% (A.N.B Laboratories, Thailand) 50 mL, potassium chloride (Nida pharma, Thailand) 20 mEq and magnesium sulfate (Atlantic, Thailand) 2 gm was infused at 0.75 mL.kg-1.h-1 and was adjusted to maintain blood glucose levels 80-150 mg/dL.

Conventional glycaemic control (Control)

Conventional glycaemic control aims to control blood sugar less than 250 mg%. Insulin was given bolusly if the blood sugar more than 250 mg%.

Group Type PLACEBO_COMPARATOR

Conventional glycaemic control

Intervention Type DRUG

Conventional glycaemic control aims to control blood sugar less than 250 mg%. Insulin was given bolusly if the blood sugar more than 250 mg%.
