[Diabetes and surgical interventions].

G Bargero, M Capra Marzani, M Fasano

    Minerva Medica
    |July 14, 1986
    PubMed
    Summary

    Diabetics undergoing surgery face higher risks due to impaired insulin response to surgical stress. Careful pre-operative assessment and tailored treatments are crucial for managing diabetes and preventing complications.

    Area of Science:

    • Endocrinology
    • Surgical Medicine
    • Metabolic Disorders

    Context:

    • Diabetes mellitus increases surgical patient population.
    • Surgical procedures represent significant physiological stress.
    • Cardiovascular and infectious complications elevate post-operative morbidity and mortality in diabetics.

    Purpose:

    • To assess pre-operative conditions in diabetic patients.
    • To discuss treatment protocols preventing catabolic states in diabetics.
    • To highlight post-operative risks, including hyperosmolar coma.

    Summary:

    • Surgical stress normally triggers insulin release to manage energy substrates; however, inadequate insulin in diabetics disrupts this, increasing risks.
    • Pre-operative evaluation and specific treatments are vital to counteract the lack of insulin and prevent dangerous metabolic imbalances.
    • Treatment strategies differ for diet-controlled, non-insulin-dependent, and insulin-dependent diabetes.

    Impact:

    • Improved peri-operative management for diabetic patients.
    • Reduced surgical morbidity and mortality rates in the diabetic population.
    • Enhanced understanding of metabolic challenges in diabetic surgery, informing clinical practice.
