Aggressive Versus Moderate Glycemic Control in Diabetic Coronary Bypass Patients
Impact of Aggressive Versus Moderate Glycemic Control on Clinical Outcomes Following Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery in Diabetic Patients

entGlycemic control has been found to improve clinical outcomes following Coronary Bypass Surgery. This study tests the hypothesis that obtaining tighter glycemic control(80-120mg/dl) as opposed to more moderate control (120-180mg/dl) will further improve outcomes.

150 diabetic patients will be randomized to achieve aggressive glycemic control (80-120mg/dl) vs moderate control (120-180mg/dl) using intravenous insulin infusions beginning at anesthetic induction and continuing for 18 hours following surgery.

Phase I
Interventional
Treatment, Randomized, Single Blind (Outcomes Assessor), Dose Comparison, Parallel Assignment, Safety/Efficacy Study
Glycemic Control
  • Drug: IV Insulin drip
  • Drug: Insulin
  • Active Comparator: Patients will receive an insulin drip to keep blood glucose levels between 120-180mg/dl
  • Active Comparator: Patients will receive an insulin drip designed to maintain serum glucose between 80-120mg/dl
