Abstract:
Objective To explore the association between perioperative glycemic control and the post-operative complications of patients undergoing pancreatic surgery. Method The clinical data of 412 patients who underwent pancreatoduodenectomy between January 1995 and April 2010 were retrospectively analyzed. Results The average fasting glycemic level was significantly higher than normal postoperatively, and the post-operative application of insulin effectively controlled glycemic levels. The rates of postoperative mortality, pancreatic fistula,hemorrhage, and infections among patients with glucose level > 8. 3 mmol/L (7.0% , 23.7% , 9.7% , and 15. 1 % ) were significantly higher than those with glucose level ≤8. 3 mmol/L (2. 7% , 11. 9% , 4. 0% , and 6.6%) (P=0.037, P=0.002, P = 0.020, and P=0.005). On the contrary, the rates of postoperative mortality and hemorrhage among patients with glucose level≤6. 1 mmol/L (6. 2% and 8. 6% ) were significantly higher than those with glucose level between 6. 1 and 8. 3 mmol/L (0. 7% and 1.4% ) (P = 0. 023 and P = 0. 011).The rate of hypoglycemia was significantly higher in patients with glucose level ≤6. 1 mmol/L (7. 4% vs. 0. 7% ,P = 0. 009). Conclusions Postoperative glucose level can be stably controlled by continuous intravenous glucose infusion plus regular insulin therapy. A target perioperative glucose level between 6. 1 and 8. 3 mmol/L can effectively and safely reduce postoperative mortality and complications.
