Hybrid Closed-Loop System in Neurosurgical Perioperative Hyperglycemia: An Open RCT

Shanxi Bethune Hospital40 enrolled

Overview

In this study, we plan to use an open-source hybrid closed-loop artificial pancreas system and a combination of a traditional insulin pump and continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) respectively to conduct short-term intensive insulin treatment for patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) during the perioperative period who are hospitalized in the Department of Neurosurgery of Shanxi Bethune Hospital. By comparing the blood glucose control status of patients under different intensive insulin treatment regimens and other clinical indicators such as postoperative complications, we will comprehensively evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of the hybrid closed-loop artificial pancreas system.

According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 40 perioperative patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) will be screened and enrolled from the neurosurgical ward of Shanxi Bethune Hospital. They will be randomly divided into two groups: 20 patients in the hybrid closed-loop artificial pancreas system group and 20 patients in the traditional pump combined with continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) group. Both groups of patients will use continuous glucose monitoring to measure blood glucose levels. After collecting baseline data, the two groups of patients will receive short-term intensive insulin therapy according to the above-mentioned plans. Relevant clinical data will be collected during and after the treatment to compare the advantages and disadvantages of the two intensive insulin treatment plans in controlling blood glucose levels in perioperative T2DM patients undergoing neurosurgery and their impact on complications.

Time in Range (TIR)

The percentage of time that blood glucose is within the target range of 6.0-12.0 mmol/L. The calculation formula is: TIR = (Time within the target range / Total time) × 100%
