Brief Summary

Hyperglycemia commonly occurs during surgery due to a reaction to metabolic stress and trauma. It has been shown that improper glycemia control leads to impaired wound healing and a higher risk of other postoperative complications. The primary aim of our project is to assess the feasibility of the use of continuous glucose monitoring in measuring blood glucose levels in patients undergoing colorectal cancer surgery. The secondary aim is to analyze changes in perioperative blood glucose levels to understand the effects of stress and intraoperative interventions on the blood glucose level. The tertiary goal is to assess the predictive value of hyperglycemia for surgical site infection.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • feasibility of CGM system

    measured as the drop-out rate caused by non-adherence of both patients and medical staff due to system detaching, problems with the receiving device (low battery. distance beyond Bluetooth communication range) etc.

    10 days

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • perioperative glycemia

    10 days

  • SSI rate

    30 days

Study Arms (1)

Experimental

EXPERIMENTAL

Study subjects submitted to the General Surgery Clinic for colorectal surgery. On admission day, patients will have a CGM sensor placed on the outer part of the upper arm. Patients will undergo standard surgical procedures and perioperative care. Glycemia will be continuously monitored for 10 days. The CGM sensor will be taken off during visit in Outpatient Clinic.

Device: CGM (FreeStyle Libre 3)

Interventions

FreeStyle Libre 3 system consists of a sensor that measures interstitial glycemia every minute and a dedicated application on mobile phone. Measurements are transmitted via Bluetooth to a mobile phone, that collects the data in the mobile application. Moreover, the study subject's application is connected to the doctor's application which allows remote real-time glycemia monitoring on another device. Other Name: continuous glucose monitoring, CGM, FreeStyle Libre 3
