ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
The high incidence of intraoperative glucose dysregulations in liver transplantation (LT) is related to the lack of highly orchestrated control of intraoperative blood glucose. Glucose monitoring based on a single arterial blood gas test can only provide a simple glucose profile and is insufficient in monitoring intraoperative glycemic variability (GV), which is not conducive to controlling GV and may have a lag in the management of hyper/hypoglycemia. Continuous glucose monitor (CGM), which has been successfully applied in the management of chronic disease in diabetes, provides more detailed blood glucose records and reflect GV parameters such as coefficient of variation (CV%). However, its effectiveness and accuracy for guiding blood glucose management in major surgeries remains unclear.METHODS:
This is a single-center, randomized, controlled, superiority trial. One hundred and eighty patients scheduled for orthotopic LT will be recruited and randomized into two groups. All patients are monitored for intraoperative glucose using CGM combined with arterial blood gas (ABG). In the intervention group (group CG), ABG will be performed when CGM value is < 6.1 mmol/L or > 10.0 mmol/L, or the rate of change of CGM value > 1.67 mmol/(L·min). In the control group (group G), intraoperative ABG tests will be performed every 2 h, and the frequency of ABG tests will be adjusted based on the previous arterial glucose result. Patients in both groups will have their blood glucose adjusted according to arterial glucose values and a uniform protocol. Surgical and other anesthetic management is completed according to standard LT practices.DISCUSSION:
This study intends to investigate the effectiveness of CGM-based intraoperative glucose management and its impact on the prognosis of LT patients by comparing the GV, mean glucose values, and the incidence of hypo/hypoglycemic events guided by the above two glucose monitoring methods.
