Trial summary

The investigators have previously demonstrated that the administration of insulin in the form of an infusion with additional sugar and potassium may improve cardiovascular performance and reduce biochemical evidence of heart muscle injury in non-diabetic patients undergoing coronary artery surgery.

About this study

Official title: Can Enhanced Glycaemic Control in Type II Diabetics Improve Myocardial Protection During Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting?

The investigators have previously demonstrated that the administration of insulin in the form of an infusion with additional sugar and potassium may improve cardiovascular performance and reduce biochemical evidence of heart muscle injury in non-diabetic patients undergoing coronary artery surgery. The investigators now seek to demonstrate that similar benefits can be achieved in diabetic patients by administering insulin to maintain as near absolutely normal sugar levels as possible.

2No interventionNormal departmental practice using dextrose insulin infusion

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The difference in the mean left ventricular end-systolic volume index (LVESVI) after CABG and the amount of new permanent injury detected in the late CMRI study

    Measured: 3 months post CABG

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Glycaemic control will be assessed 2 hours pre-operatively and 72 hours post-operatively. Measurement timings will be standardized allowing comparison of glycaemic control during different time-periods.

    Measured: 72 hours post CABG

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Glucose potassium insulin solution in people with Type 2 Diabetes, run by University Hospital Birmingham at 1 site in United Kingdom.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 8 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 May 2009. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United Kingdom. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Robert S Bonser (0121 4721311 ext. 2559, mailto:Robert.Bonser@uhb.nhs.uk), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The difference in the mean left ventricular end-systolic volume index (LVESVI) after CABG and the amount of new permanent injury detected in the late CMRI study (time frame: 3 months post CABG). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00899483, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 12 May 2009.
