CAESAR: Glycemic Variability and Autonomic Nervous System in Cardiac Surgery Patients
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
On-pump coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) and valve replacement surgeries are high-risk procedures. Among the risk factors for postoperative complications, perioperative hyperglycemia and blood glucose variability have been reported to be associated with increased morbidity and mortality. The treatment of hyperglycemia using intravenous insulin infusion improves the prognosis in cardiac surgery patients. However, the determinants of postoperative blood glucose variability and the mechanisms leading to its deleterious impact are unknown. Thus, to date, there is no therapeutic intervention that could effectively prevent and treat the deleterious impact of glycemic variability on postoperative outcome. The purpose of the study is to evaluate whether perioperative alteration of the autonomic nervous system and preoperative blood glucose variability could be related to perioperative glycemic variability.

Detailed Description
The main objective is to describe the relationship between preoperative glycemic variability and glycemic variability during the first 48 postoperative hours.
The secondary objectives are :
- to describe the relationship between preoperative glycemic variability and glycemic variability during the first 48 hours postoperative according to:
-
diabetic and non-diabetic status
-
the type of surgical intervention
- to describe the relationship between the parameters evaluating the preoperative activity of the autonomic nervous system and:
-
preoperative glycemic variability
-
glycemic variability during the first 48 postoperative hours
- to describe the relationship between glycemic variability during the first 48 postoperative hours and:
-
parameters evaluating the activity of the autonomic nervous system during the first 48 postoperative hours
-
diabetes phenotype
-
markers of inflammation
-
markers of endothelial dysfunction
- to describe the morbidity and mortality within 30 days after surgery.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Glycemic variability, measured by subcutaneous blood glucose continuous monitoring sensor, calculated by the coefficient of glycemic variability [From 14 days before surgery (at least 48 hours before surgery) to 7 days after surgery]
Continuous blood glucose monitoring using a subcutaneous blood glucose continuous monitoring sensor (FreeStyle Libre Pro)
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Autonomic nervous system activity, measured by non-invasive continuous heart rate monitoring, calculated by measuring the R-R interval [From the day before surgery (at admission in the cardiac surgery department the day before surgery) to Day 3 after surgery]
Continuous non-invasive continuous heart rate monitoring using the MooKy HR memory device will allow the continuous measurement of the R-R interval and the R-R interval variability to quantify the activity of the autonomic nervous system.
- Vasopressine blood level [The day before surgery, at admission in the postoperative intensive care unit, at day 1 and at day 2 after surgery]
Vasopressine blood level will be measured from blood samples to assess the relationship between blood glucose variability and endothelial dysfunction.
- Autonomic nervous system activity [The day before surgery.]
Compass 31 scale: the Compass 31 scale is a validated clinical scale that allows to identify the degree au autonomic nervous system dysfunction.
- Endocan blood level [The day before surgery, and at admission in the postoperative intensive care unit, and at day 1 and at day 2 after surgery.]
Endocan blood level will be measured from blood samples to assess the relationship between blood glucose variability and endothelial dysfunction.
- 8-iso PGF2a urinary level [The day before surgery, and at admission in the postoperative intensive care unit, and at day 1 and at day 2 after surgery.]
8-iso PGF2a urinary level will be measured from urinary samples to assess the relationship between blood glucose variability and oxidative stress.
- IL-6 blood level [The day before surgery, and at admission in the postoperative intensive care unit, and at day 1 and at day 2 after surgery.]
IL-6 blood level will be measured from blood samples to assess the relationship between blood glucose variability and systemic inflammation.
- IL-10 blood level [The day before surgery, and at admission in the postoperative intensive care unit, and at day 1 and at day 2 after surgery.]
IL-10 blood level will be measured from blood samples to assess the relationship between blood glucose variability and systemic inflammation.
- TNF-alpha blood level [The day before surgery, and at admission in the postoperative intensive care unit, and at day 1 and at day 2 after surgery.]
TNF-alpha blood level will be measured from blood samples to assess the relationship between blood glucose variability and systemic inflammation.
- Angiotensine blood level [The day before surgery, and at admission in the postoperative intensive care unit, and at day 1 and at day 2 after surgery.]
Angiotensine blood level will be measured from blood samples to assess the relationship between blood glucose variability and endothelial dysfunction.
