A Randomized Controlled Trial Comparing Blood Glucose Control Intraoperative Between Insulin Drip vs. Insulin Boluses

Cardiac surgery patients often experience elevated blood glucose levels, which can lead to poor surgical outcomes and increased postoperative complications. Therefore, tight blood glucose control during surgery is important. Currently, there is no consensus on the best method for blood glucose control during cardiac surgery. This proposal aims to perform a randomized controlled trial to compare blood glucose control intraoperatively using an insulin drip versus insulin boluses. The primary objective of the study is to compare blood glucose control intraoperatively between patients who receive insulin drip and patients who receive insulin boluses during adult cardiac surgery. This study will be a randomized controlled trial in which adult patients undergoing cardiac surgery will be randomized into two groups: insulin drip and insulin boluses. Patients with a history of diabetes or those currently taking antidiabetic medications will be included in the study. This randomized controlled trial will provide valuable information on the optimal method for achieving blood glucose control intraoperatively. The results of this study may help improve patient outcomes and reduce the incidence of postoperative complications.
