The goal of this observational study is to generate data on the incidence and outcome-relevance of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor associated ketoacidosis in adult patients with regular intake of any SGLT2 inhibitor within the last three months that are undergoing in-patient surgery. Further, it will describe strategies in current clinical practice to prevent and manage SGLT2 inhibitor associated ketoacidosis. The specific aims of this study are: 1. To assess the incidence of SGLT2 inhibitor associated ketoacidosis in surgical patients 2. To characterise fasting times in patients with SGLT2 inhibitor associated ketoacidosis 3. To describe the management of SGLT2 inhibitor associated ketoacidosis in current clinical practice 4. To assess the outcome impact of SGLT2 inhibitor associated ketoacidosis

Number of patients with postoperative ketoacidosis
Ketoacidosis will be defined as by the American Diabetes Association: * pH \<= 7,30 * Serum bicarbonate \<= 18 mmol/l * Serum and/or urine ketones positive
Time frame: From the immediate postoperative period to the first postoperative morning
Composite of postoperative complications
Composite of all-cause death, hospital readmission, major adverse cardiovascular events (defined as myocardial infarction, myocardial injury, cardiovascular death, non-fatal cardiac arrest, decompensated heart failure with the need for transfer to a higher unit of care, atrial fibrillation, pulmonary embolism, coronary revascularization), acute kidney injury according to KDIGO criteria or other major postoperative complications (defined as Clavien-Dindo class ≥ 3)
Time frame: From enrollment to the end of follow up at 30 days after discharge
Single postoperative complication
Individual components of the composite (all-cause death, hospital readmission, major adverse cardiovascular events (defined as myocardial infarction, myocardial injury, cardiovascular death, non-fatal cardiac arrest, decompensated heart failure with the need for transfer to a higher unit of care, atrial fibrillation, pulmonary embolism, coronary revascularization), acute kidney injury according to KDIGO criteria or other major postoperative complications (defined as Clavien-Dindo class ≥ 3))
Time frame: From enrollment to the end of follow up at 30 days after discharge
Acute kidney injury
According to KDIGO definition and based on routinely measured creatinine
Time frame: From enrollment to the end of follow up at 30 days after discharge

Time frame: From enrollment to discharge (in-hospital) at approximately four days after surgery
Length of stay on intensive care unit
Time frame: From entering the intensive care unit to discharge to the normal ward at approximately 2 days after surgery
Length of stay in the recovery room
Time frame: From entering the recovery room to discharge to the normal ward at approximately one hour after surgery
