NCT06838507

Brief Summary

The goal of this observational study is to generate data on the incidence and outcome-relevance of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor associated ketoacidosis in adult patients with regular intake of any SGLT2 inhibitor within the last three months that are undergoing in-patient surgery. Further, it will describe strategies in current clinical practice to prevent and manage SGLT2 inhibitor associated ketoacidosis. The specific aims of this study are:

  1. 1.To assess the incidence of SGLT2 inhibitor associated ketoacidosis in surgical patients
  2. 2.To characterise fasting times in patients with SGLT2 inhibitor associated ketoacidosis
  3. 3.To describe the management of SGLT2 inhibitor associated ketoacidosis in current clinical practice
  4. 4.To assess the outcome impact of SGLT2 inhibitor associated ketoacidosis

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Number of patients with postoperative ketoacidosis

    Ketoacidosis will be defined as by the American Diabetes Association: * pH \<= 7,30 * Serum bicarbonate \<= 18 mmol/l * Serum and/or urine ketones positive

    From the immediate postoperative period to the first postoperative morning

Secondary Outcomes (6)

  • Composite of postoperative complications

    From enrollment to the end of follow up at 30 days after discharge

  • Single postoperative complication

    From enrollment to the end of follow up at 30 days after discharge

  • Acute kidney injury

    From enrollment to the end of follow up at 30 days after discharge

  • Length of stay in-hospital

    From enrollment to discharge (in-hospital) at approximately four days after surgery

  • Length of stay on intensive care unit

    From entering the intensive care unit to discharge to the normal ward at approximately 2 days after surgery

  • +1 more secondary outcomes
