NCT02036372

Brief Summary

The incidence of diabetes mellitus type II is increasing. More and more patients who need surgery have diabetes mellitus type II. Despite an enormous amount of glucose lowering protocols and the proven negative effects of hyperglycaemia. There is no evidence for the optimal glucose lowering protocol. This study investigates the optimal intraoperative treatment algorithm to lower glucose in patients with diabetes mellitus type 2 undergoing non-cardiac surgery, comparing intraoperative glucose-insulin-potassium infusion (GIK), insulin bolus regimen (BR) and GLP-1 (liraglutide, LG) treatment.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Median glucose

    The difference in median glucose between the GIK + BR and LG group 1 hour after surgery

    1 hour after surgery

Secondary Outcomes (6)

  • Total Insulin administration

    1 day postoperative

  • Median glucose

    4 hours and 1 day postoperative

  • Postoperative complications

    1 month after surgery

  • Hypoglycemia

    From start treatment until the morning of day 1 postoperative

  • Hypo- and hyperkalemia

    from start treatment until morning of day 1 postoperative

  • +1 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (3)

BR (bolus regimen)

EXPERIMENTAL

* Day before surgery: half evening dose long acting insulin * Day of surgery: * patients using mealtime and longacting insulin/NPH: withhold mealtime morning dose, stop glucose lowering tablets * patients using only long acting insulin/NPH: half dose of long-acting or NPH insulin, stop glucose lowering tablets * Measure blood glucose every 60 minutes, start 30 min prior to surgery * Give bolus of insulin according to treatment algorithm

Drug: Insulin bolus

LG (Liraglutide)

EXPERIMENTAL

* Day before surgery: half dose of long acting and mealtime insulin from start liraglutide * Day of surgery: withhold own insulin, stop oral glucose lowering tablets * Start with 0.6 mg liraglutide subcutaneously (s.c.) the day prior to surgery at 17.00hr. * In case of nausea graded higher than minimal, the patient will be excluded from the study * Otherwise, treatment will be continued with 1.2 mg liraglutide s.c. per day on the day of surgery at 07.00hr. * Measure glucose every 60 minutes, start 30 min prior to surgery * Adjust according to bolus algorithm of BR group

Drug: LiraglutideDrug: Insulin bolus

GIK (glucose -insulin - potassium) infusion

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

* Day before surgery: half evening dose long acting insulin * Day of surgery: stop oral glucose lowering tablets and withhold own insulin. * GIK infusion: 500 cc glucose 5% with insulin and 10 mmol KCL per 500 cc. Start at 83 ml/hr. * Calculate the insulin amount in the GIK infusion according to the formula: I= (PG-7)/(200/W)+8 I=Insulin amount, PG=glucose 30 minutes preoperative, W= body weight in kg * Measure blood glucose every 60 minutes, start 30 min prior to surgery * Adjust glucose \> 8 mmol/l according to treatment algorithm

Drug: GIK infusion
