Early Postoperative Blood Glucose Variability and Outcome After TAVI

Completed
Conditions
Stress Hyperglycemia
Registration Number
NCT02726958
Lead Sponsor
Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Besancon
Brief Summary

Stress hyperglycaemia is a well-known risk factor of postoperative morbidity and mortality in cardiac surgery. Recently, several authors have reported that increased blood glucose (BG) variability could worsen the prognosis in this population.The transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is a low invasive procedure proposed as an alternative technique to aortic valve replacement surgery in high-risk patients.

The aim of this study is to describe the incidence of stress hyperglycaemia and assess whether BG variability could impact the outcome of patients undergoing TAVI.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Incidence of stress hyperglycemia48 hours

Stress hyperglycemia is defined as a blood glucose value above 7.7 mmol/l requiring insulin infusion within the 48 first hours following the TAVI.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Standard deviation of blood glucose value48 hours

Standard deviation of glucose value is the standard deviation of all the blood glucose values measured during the 48 first hours following the TAVI.

Incidence of moderate hypoglycemia48 hours

Moderate hypoglycemia is defined as a blood glucose value under 3.3 mmol/l.

Mean blood glucose value48 hours

Mean blood glucose value is the mean of all the blood glucose values measured during the 48 first hours following the TAVI.

Incidence of severe hypoglycemia48 hours

Severe hypoglycemia is defined as a blood glucose value under 2.2 mmol/l.

Coefficient of variability of blood glucose48 hours

The coefficient of variability is the ratio of the standard deviation on the mean blood glucose value, expressed as a percentage.

Incidence of severe hyperglycemia48 hours

Severe hyperglycemia is defined as a blood glucose value above 11.0 mmol/l.

Mean daily variation of blood glucose48 hours

The mean daily variation of blood glucose is defined as the mean of the daily differences between the maximal and the minimal glucose value.
