NCT03526536

Brief Summary

This study is for people with diabetes who have either healthy kidneys or who have end stage renal disease (ESRD) and are on hemodialysis that are having surgery. This research will help increase our knowledge about how having diseased kidneys and being on hemodialysis changes how the body responds to insulin. In the time period directly before, during, and after surgery, maintenance of blood sugar within normal physiological range is essential. When patients come for surgery and have an elevated blood sugar, it is up to each individual physician to decide on the right amount of insulin to treat them. Currently, there are many different protocols across the country to treat elevated blood sugar; however, there is no one specific protocol to treat elevated blood sugar at SUNY Downstate Medical Center at this time. In this study, the investigators will evaluate the change in blood sugar following insulin administration to determine whether there is a significantly different response between ESRD and non-ESRD patients. The results of the study will help develop safer practice guidelines to patients with ESRD with an elevated blood sugar while they are having surgery.
