Comparing insulin methods after surgery for type 2 diabetes
Part of Hormones & metabolism, Infections clinical trials.
This trial tests two ways to give insulin after gastrointestinal or vascular surgery to see which one leads to fewer wound infections. It may help if you have type 2 diabetes and are having one of these surgeries.

This study tests whether weight-loss surgery improves how your body uses insulin and energy. It compares insulin sensitivity and related measurements before and after surgery to understand who benefits.
This trial compares two ways of managing blood sugar in the hospital for people with Type 2 diabetes who need insulin. You would either use an automated insulin pump (a small device that delivers insulin continuously) or continue with daily insulin injections, and researchers will see which works better during your hospital stay.
This Phase 3 trial compares sleeve gastrectomy versus a different bypass-style operation to improve blood sugar in adults with type 2 diabetes. It may help some people lower blood sugar and diabetes medication needs, but you must meet specific safety and health criteria.
This study collects small tissue samples during planned weight-loss surgery to better understand metabolism and how insulin works in people with and without type 2 diabetes. You may help researchers by allowing their team to take these samples while you are already having surgery.
This trial tests whether giving high-dose insulin around the time of major abdominal surgery can lower the risk of post-surgery infections. If you’re having elective liver, pancreas, or colorectal surgery, the study looks at whether tighter sugar control helps your recovery.
This trial checks if monitoring and treating blood sugar levels during long surgeries can lower the risk of infections and other problems afterward. It is for adults having any surgery expected to last 2 hours or more.
