Preoperative Oral Carbohydrate Treatment Minimizes Insulin Resistance

Not Applicable
Conditions
Insulin Resistance
Interventions
Dietary Supplement: Preoperative Oral Carbohydrate Drink
Registration Number
NCT03658564
Lead Sponsor
The Second Affiliated Hospital of Dalian Medical University
Brief Summary

Insulin resistance is a positive protective reaction against surgery .this resistance has some negative consequences for patient health. It is associated with infectious complications. At the same time, Postoperative insulin resistance has been shown to correlate with the length of postoperative stay in hospital. Recently several clinical studies have shown that a carbohydrate-rich drink given 2 h before surgery diminishes postoperative insulin resistance in patient. The aim of our study is to investigate the influence on insulin resistance in patient with diabetes.

Detailed Description

Insulin resistance is a positive protective reaction against surgery . As a response to surgery, activation of neuroendocrine and inflammation systems occurs as a protective reaction. However, this resistance has some negative consequences for patient health. It is associated with infectious complications. At the same time, Postoperative insulin resistance has been shown to correlate with the length of postoperative stay in hospital. Recently several clinical studies have shown that a carbohydrate-rich drink given 2 h before surgery diminishes postoperative insulin resistance in patient. The aim of our study is to investigate the influence on insulin resistance in patient with diabetes.
