Sitagliptin for prevention of stress hyperglycemia in patients without diabetes undergoing general surgery : A pilot randomized study

Published by Elsevier Inc..

AIM: We investigated if a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor, sitagliptin, can prevent perioperative stress hyperglycemia in patients without prior history of diabetes mellitus undergoing general surgery.

METHODS: This double-blind pilot trial randomized general surgery patients to receive sitagliptin (n = 44) or placebo (n = 36) once daily, starting one day prior to surgery and continued during the hospital stay. The primary outcome was occurrence of stress hyperglycemia, defined by blood glucose (BG) >140 mg/dL and >180 mg/dL after surgery. Secondary outcomes included: length-of-stay, ICU transfers, hypoglycemia, and hospital complications.

RESULTS: BG >140 mg/dL was present in 44 (55%) of subjects following surgery. There were no differences in hyperglycemia between placebo and sitagliptin (56% vs. 55%, p = 0.93). BG >180 mg/dL was observed in 19% and 11% of patients treated with placebo and sitagliptin, respectively, p = 0.36. Both treatment groups had resulted in similar postoperative BG (148.9 ± 29.4 mg/dL vs. 146.9 ± 35.2 mg/dL, p = 0.73). There were no differences in length-of-stay (4 vs. 3 days, p = 0.84), ICU transfer (3% vs. 5%, p = 1.00), hypoglycemia <70 mg/dL (6% vs. 11%, p = 0.45), and complications (14% vs. 18%, p = 0.76).

CONCLUSION: Preoperative treatment with sitagliptin did not prevent stress hyperglycemia or complications in individuals without diabetes undergoing surgery.
