NCT00899483

Brief Summary

The investigators have previously demonstrated that the administration of insulin in the form of an infusion with additional sugar and potassium may improve cardiovascular performance and reduce biochemical evidence of heart muscle injury in non-diabetic patients undergoing coronary artery surgery. The investigators now seek to demonstrate that similar benefits can be achieved in diabetic patients by administering insulin to maintain as near absolutely normal sugar levels as possible.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • The difference in the mean left ventricular end-systolic volume index (LVESVI) after CABG and the amount of new permanent injury detected in the late CMRI study

    3 months post CABG

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Glycaemic control will be assessed 2 hours pre-operatively and 72 hours post-operatively. Measurement timings will be standardized allowing comparison of glycaemic control during different time-periods.

    72 hours post CABG

Study Arms (2)

1

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Administered with glucose potassium insulin solution to achieve euglycaemia 4.0-6.0 mmol/L

Drug: Glucose potassium insulin solution

2

NO INTERVENTION

Normal departmental practice using dextrose insulin infusion

Interventions

Enhanced glycaemic control in diabetics with glucose-potassium-insulin solution
