What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Continuous glucose monitoring system combined with enhanced model predictive control algorithm for intensive insulin treatmentDevice

    Glucose measured with a real-time continuous glucose monitoring system served as an input for the enhanced model predictive control algorithm adjusting insulin infusion every 15 minutes for the first 24 hours after elective cardiac surgery

  • Intensive insulin therapy using standard protocolOther

    Insulin dosage according to the standard protocol for intensive insulin delivery used at Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery, General University Hospital, Prague.

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of glycemic values in the A and B zone of Clarke Error Grid Analysis (a tool for assessing the accuracy of glucose meters)

    Measured: first 24 hours after cardiac surgery

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Entire study average glycemia level; time within, above and below the target range throughout the whole study period and after reaching the target range

    Measured: first 24 hours after cardiac surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Intensive insulin therapy using standard protocol in people with Hyperglycemia and Cardiac Surgery, run by Charles University, Czech Republic at 1 site in Czechia.

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 1 inclusion and 3 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Oct 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 Czechia. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Percentage of glycemic values in the A and B zone of Clarke Error Grid Analysis (a tool for assessing the accuracy of glucose meters) (time frame: first 24 hours after cardiac surgery). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 16 Oct 2009.
