Abstract:
Objective To investigate the influence of intensive insulin therapy on the short-term prognosis in children after cardiac surgery.Methods A total of 320 children including 192 males and 128 females who underwent cardiac surgery were enrolled in this study from Jan 2009 to Dec 2010 at the cardiac surgery department of Chengdu cardiovascular hospital.The age of these children ranged from 3 months to 12years old.According to insulin administration time and blood glucose control level,they were randomly divided into two groups.In group A,there were 165 patients who received continuous insulin infusion to maintain postoperative gloucose levels between 4.4 and 6.1 mmol/L,while 155 patients in group B received insulin infusion when their glucose levels were higher than 11.1 mmol/L to control the levels between 6.1 and 11.1 mmol/L.Then the postoperative complications and blood glucose controlling were compared and analyzed.Results A total of 320 children were enrolled,and 4 800 recorded data were analyzed.The mean blood glucose level was (5.58 ±0.54) mmol/L in group A and (7.73 ±0.85) mmol/L in group B (P ＜0.01 ),and both of them were controlled within the target range.The incidence of hypoglycemia ( ＜3.3 mmor/L) was 1.65％ (38/2310)in group A and 1.04％ (26/2490) in group B.The incidence of severe hypoglycemia ( ＜2.2 mmol/L) was 0.13 ％ ( 3/2 310 ) in group A and 0.08 ％ ( 2/2 490 ) in group B.The incidences of hypoglycemia and severe hypoglycemia were significantly increased in group A compared to group B ( P ＜0.01 ).The incidence of infection in group A was lower than that in group B [3.03％ (5/165) vs 9.68％ (15/155),P ＜0.05],but there was no significant difference between the two groups in the incidences of malignant arrhythmia,circulation failure or shock,multiple organ dysfunctive syndrome and mortality.Conclusion Intensive insulin therapy can't improve the short-term prognosis in children after cardiac surgery.
