Management of Diabetes Mellitus in Surgical Patients

Abstract: In Brief Diabetes is associated with increased requirement for surgical procedures and increased postoperative morbidity and mortality. The stress response to surgery and the resultant hyperglycemia, osmotic diuresis, and hypoinsulinemia can lead to perioperative ketoacidosis or hyperosmolar syndrome. Hyperglycemia impairs leukocyte function and wound healing. The management goal is to optimize metabolic control through close monitoring, adequate fluid and caloric repletion, and judicious use of… Show more

“…Coronary artery bypass grafting, appendectomy, cholecystectomy, bariatric surgery, laparotomy, abscess drainage, embolectomy and lower extremity amputation are the most commonly performed procedures in this population. Although major procedures such as coronary artery bypass grafting have additional risks, minor interventions can be associated with unwanted surgical and anaesthetic outcomes (16).…”

“…So precautions have to be done, any impaired glucose level with blood electrolytes, signs of dehydration and acid-base derangements have to be identifi ed before surgery. When identifi ed once, insulin therapy with neutralization of dextrose solutions, correction of acid base disorders and electrolyte imbalances have to be treated (16).…”

“…En pacientes tratados con insulina de acción prolongada, esta se debe suspender varios días previos a la cirugía y sustituirla con insulina de acción intermedia o múltiples aplicaciones de insulina de acción rápida en el día más insulina de acción intermedia en la noche; este régimen se puede continuar hasta horas previas a la cirugía. Si la cirugía se realiza en pacientes tratados con insulina de acción intermedia y se programa en la mañana, se debe administrar la mitad de la dosis total de insulina 40 .…”

“…Electrolyte monitoring and potassium administration may be necessary in longer cases. 1 The following points bear repeat mention: (1) type 1 diabetes mellitus is characterized by a lack of insulin production, whereas type 2 is characterized by a combination of insulin resistance and relative insulin insufficiency. (2) Surgical stress leads to the release of catecholamines, glucagon, and cortisol.…”
