An observational study in Severe Hyperglycemia, Postoperative Infection and Orthopedic Patients, sponsored by Federico Bilotta. Status unknown at 1 site in Italy. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2019-04-05.
Sponsored by Federico Bilotta · Observational
Postoperative infections are a common complication. A relationship between perioperative severe hyperglycemia and postoperative infections has been found in patients undergoing craniotomy. The aim of this study is to evaluate the epidemiology of intraoperative severe hyperglycemia (BGC >180 mg/dL; 10 mmol/L) and postoperative infections (wound, urinary and prosthetic joint infection) and to investigate if severe intraoperative hyperglycemia is associated with an higher risk of early postoperative (within the 7th postoperative days) infections (wound, urinary and prosthetic joint infection).
6,687 studies on the registry are indexed under Infections; 807 are open to participants now.
This study's planned enrollment of 1,000 is above the median of 240 across 2,136 observational studies indexed under Infections.
