Trial Outcomes & Findings for The Effects of Glycemic Optimization Before Gastric Bypass Surgery (NCT NCT01353118)

NCT ID: NCT01353118

Last Updated: 2022-03-14

Results Overview

A patient is considered to have achieved remission of T2F according to the American Diabetes Association criteria if they have fasting glucose below 6mmol/L AND HbA1c below 6% AND no medication for diabetes. Thus, a patient needs to achieve all of the three criteria (fasting glucose, HbA1C, and no medication) before being considered to be in remission. If a patient only achieves 2 of the criteria (fasting glucose and no medication) but the HbA1C is above 6% then they are not considered to be in remission. The outcome measure is calculated as the count of participants achiving the above criteria

Measure
Gastric Bypass
Group A: Patients will undergo gastric bypass surgery within 3 months after randomisation without any pre operative optimisation of glycaemic control.
Gastric Bypass 2
Gastric bypass 2 (Group B):Patients will undergo gastric bypass 3-6 months after randomisation. During this period the group will receive modern best medical care based on the American Diabetes Association (ADA)/European Association for the Study of Diabetes (EASD) guidelines. Glycaemic optimisation will be achieved in a gradual manner with particular attention to the avoidance of hypoglycaemia gastric bypass: Optimise glucose control within 3 months before operation

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 1 year

A composite of microvascular complications. Microvascular events will be defined as new or worsening nephropathy, retinopathy or neuropathy. The outcome measure is calculated as the count of participants developing any of the microvascular events.
