Peri-Operative Diabetic Patient Management Larry Field, MD Critical Care Anesthesiologist Medical University of South Carolina April 20, 2010
Objectives • Update our knowledge of different insulin preparations • Update our knowledge of non-insulin (oral and injectable) agents • Set reasonable goals for perioperative glycemic control • Suggest recommendations for achievement of glycemic goals • Disclaimers: None
Diabetes Mellitus • Metabolic diseases characterized by hyperglycemia resulting from defects in insulin secretion, insulin action, or both • Affects 8% of general population • 20% of persons aged 65 to 74 • 30-40% of those born this past decade JAMA 2003;290:1884–90 Curr Opin Anaesthesiol 22:718–724
Insulin Regimens • Humalog/ Novolog • Humalin/ Novolin • Lantus • Levemir (detemir)
Alpha-glucosidase inhibitors • Acarbose (Precose), miglitol (Glyset) • Inhibit oligosaccharide and disaccharide uptake at intestinal (brush border) level • If NPO, doesn’t do anything
Biguanide • Metformin (Glucophage) • Inhibition of gluconeogenesis in the kidneys and liver • Bind to the Mitochondrial membranes, leading to decreased ATP and increased AMP • Limited hypoglycemia potential • Lactic acidosis black box warning • Classically hold for 48hrs • Eliminated by kidneys
Sulfonylureas • Endogenous insulin release from beta cells • Can cause hypoglycemia • Hold on morning of surgery www.endotext.org
Meglitinides • Nateglinide (Starlix), repaglinide (Prandin), repaglinide/metformin (PrandiMet) • Induce endogenous insulin release similar to sulfonureas • Hypoglycemic risk reduced? • Quick/short action • Taken prior to each meal
Thiozolidinediones (glitazones) • Troglitazone (Rezulin), rosiglitazone (Avandia), pioglitazone (Actos) • Transcription factor (PPAR)agonist Insulin receptor sensitization • Also improves lipid profiles • No lactic acidosis • Limited potential for hypoglycemia • Hepatotoxicity and fluid retention concerns • Short plasma half-life; Long duration of action
Incretin hormones? • GI hormones released in response enteral carbohydrate load • Glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) • Increased insulin release from beta cells prior to hyperglycemia • Glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) • Neuroendocrine signal
GLP-1 • Alpha cells: • Glucose-dependent glucagon inhibition • Beta cells: • Primes glucose-dependent insulin release • Increases beta cell numbers • Increases insulin biosynthesis • Reduces appetite; slows gastric emptying
Dipeptidyl peptidase IV • Ubiquitous • Involved in hormone degredation • GLP-1, VIP, GHRH, neuropeptide Y • GLP-1 is quickly degraded • Involved in immune cell messaging
Amylin • Produced by pancreatic beta cells similar to insulin • Independent/additive effects to insulin • Glucose-dependent glucagon suppression • Satiety and delayed gastric emptying
Newest Agents SQ PO SQ Little anesthetic experience with these agents Based on physiology and pharmacology Anesth Analg 2009;108:1803–10
Surgery as a Metabolic Challenge • Stress hormones – catecholamines, cortisol, growth hormone • Cytokines – IL-6 and TNF-alpha • Hyperglycemia proportional to insult • Superficial: 10-20 mg/dl • Major vascular/cardiac: 50-100 mg/dl
Stress-induced hyperglycemia • Adaptive response • Brain and red blood cell uptake is increased • Independent risk factor for morbidity and mortality
Hyperglycemia • Impaired collagen production • Impaired neutrophil chemotaxis, phagocytosis, and bacterial killing • Increased platelet aggregation • Infectious complications Clinical Diabetes 2009; 27:82-85
Hypoglycemia • Sympatho-adrenal activation • Diaphoresis, tachycardia, hypertension • Weakness/fatigue AMS Coma • Common in Type 1 diabetics • Uncommon in Type 2 diabetics
Intraoperative Glucose Control Data • Sparse data on outpatient procedures • Critical care data • Van den Berghe 2001 80-110 goal • NICE-SUGAR 140-180 goal • Cardiac/surgical data • Very tight vs good vs poor glucose control
Insulin Benefits • Decreases endothelial activation • Improved lipid profiles • Decreases pro-inflammatory cytokine production • Benefits thought due to glycemic control
Treatment Goal • Try to mimic normal metabolism as closely as possible: • Avoiding hypoglycemia • Avoiding excessive hyperglycemia • Avoid ketoacidosis • Avoid electrolyte/fluid disturbances • Avoid large fluctuations

POC testing can be off by +/- 20% • 20% of capillary • 7% of whole blood samples Mayo Clinic Proc. 2008; 83:394-397
Consensus Recommendations Insulin admin: IV gtt vs IV bolus vs SQ bolus? Consensus Statement, SAMBA 2010
Insulin Dosing • Use 1500 rule for regular insulin • Use 1800 rule for rapid-acting insulin Current opinion in anesthesiology 2009; 22:718-724
Consensus Recommendations Consensus Statement, SAMBA 2010
Other Anesthetic Considerationsfor Diabetes Mellitus • Diabetic comorbidities not covered today • Periop/stress steroids Hyperglycemia within a couple of hours • Starvation increases insulin resistance Preop carb loading may help • Beta-blockers can blunt catecholamine-induced hyperglycemia
Other Anesthetic Considerationsfor Diabetes Mellitus • Etomidate can blunt steroid-induced hyperglycemia of stress • Volatile anesthetics impair insulin release and increase insulin resistance (dose-dependent) • Regional anesthesia/local anesthetics can blunt/abolish periop hyperglycemia • High-dose opioids also blunt
A Final Thought Continuous glucose monitoring will (soon) be awesome!
