High blood sugar in surgery patients with pre-diabetes
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study checks how common high blood sugar is during and after surgery in people with pre-diabetes, which may help improve care for future patients.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your A1c level is between 6 and 6.4% (a sign of pre-diabetes)
- You are scheduled for surgery that is not on your heart, brain, stomach bypass, or pancreas
- You are over 18 years old
- You are not pregnant
- You do not have a formal diabetes diagnosis
- You do not take any medications that affect blood sugar

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.
This trial looks at whether a spike in blood sugar during surgery (stress hyperglycemia) is linked to confusion after surgery. Understanding this link could help doctors find patients at risk for confusion and help prevent it.
This trial tests how tightly blood sugar should be controlled during heart surgery for patients aged 60 and older with type 2 diabetes. It may help reduce complications and improve recovery.
This study looks at how well-controlled blood sugar (measured by HbA1c) affects brain oxygen levels during urologic surgery and how it impacts recovery afterward. It compares diabetic patients to non-diabetic patients to understand the role of blood sugar control in surgical outcomes.
This study looks at how food moves through the body and how that may affect episodes of low blood sugar caused by too much insulin. It may help researchers better understand and possibly improve care for people who get hypoglycemia, especially after bariatric (weight-loss) surgery.
This study collects small tissue samples during certain abdominal surgeries to better understand what drives severe obesity and related blood-sugar patterns. If you agree to the extra sampling, your information and samples may help researchers build a “biological atlas” that could guide future treatments.
