Perioperative Glycemic Control: Main Factor in Reducing Postoperative Complications in Diabetic Patients by Ariel Leonardo Alarcón Vela, Ximena Patricia Santacruz Solís, Ronelsys Martínez

“…It was possible to appreciate that perioperative hyperglycemia is associated with adverse results in general surgery patients with diabetes mellitus, however, in patients who have achieved glycemic control with insulin therapy before the intervention, they did not present a greater risk than that which appears in subjects with good metabolic control. Glucose regulation in the perioperative stage is an important parameter in diabetic patients, which considerably reduces complications in surgical procedures, long stays in Intensive Care Units, and even death.…”
