چکیده

Background: Patients with diabetes mellitus undergoing coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) have increased perioperative morbidity and mortality. Tighter glycemic control with an insulin infusion immediately after an acute myocardial infarction has been found to reduce mortality among patients with hyperglycemia. It is unknown whether diabetic patients undergoing CABG would also benefit from tighter glycemic control.

Comparing Effects of Continuous Insulin Infusion with or without Subcutaneous Glargine Insulin on Glycemic Control in Diabetic Patients Undergoing Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (CABG)

OBJECTIVE: Hyperglycemia is associated with increased morbidity and mortality in diabetic patients following coronary artery bypass grafting. Tight glycemic control in perioperative period can reduce these events. The goal of this study was to determine whether combination of continuous infusion and subcutaneous glargine as a basal insulin could improve glycemic control. MATERIAL AND METHODS:...
