The Effect of a Diabetes Action Team in Patients Post Infrainguinal Bypass Surgery With and Without Diabetes

A study testing Subjects with diabetes who plan to undergo elective infrainguinal bypass surgery will receive standard diabetes care by their admitting physician, Subjects with diabetes who plan to undergo elective infrainguinal bypass surgery will receive diabetes care under the direction of the Diabetes Action Team and Subjects without diabetes will have their blood glucose levels monitored while in the hospital in people with Type 2 Diabetes and Peripheral Vascular Disease, run by University of British Columbia at 1 site in Canada.

Trial summary

Diabetes is a very common illness. Approximately 4% of British Columbians have diabetes. However, at least 20% of people admitted to acute care hospitals have diabetes. People with diabetes are at a higher risk for developing complications after surgery including infection and prolonged hospital stay, especially if… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Early Post-Operative Dysglycemia in Patients With and Without Diabetes Post-Infrainguinal Bypass Surgery and the Effectiveness of a Diabetes Action Team in the Management of Diabetes Post Infrainguinal Bypass Surgery on Glycemic Control, Length of Stay, and Infection Rates: A Pilot Study

Diabetes is a very common illness. Approximately 4% of British Columbians have diabetes. However, at least 20% of people admitted to acute care hospitals have diabetes. People with diabetes are at a higher risk for developing complications after surgery including infection and prolonged hospital stay, especially if blood sugars are high.

The researchers are testing a Diabetes Action Team to see if their involvement in patient care after surgery improves blood glucose control, duration of stay in hospital, and infection rates.

Read the detailed description

This trial will randomize subjects with diabetes who plan to undergo elective infrainguinal bypass surgery to receive either standard diabetes care by their admitting physician, or diabetes care under the direction of the Diabetes Action Team post operatively until hospital discharge and post discharge in the community. Subjects without diabetes will have their blood glucose levels monitored while in the hospital. The Diabetes Action team will consist of a nurse coordinator who is a Certified Diabetes Educator (CDE) and a team of physicians specialized in the management of diabetes. The study will not increase the length of the hospital stay.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Subjects with diabetes who plan to undergo elective infrainguinal bypass surgery will receive standard diabetes care by their admitting physician, Subjects with diabetes who plan to undergo elective infrainguinal bypass surgery will receive diabetes care under the direction of the Diabetes Action Team and Subjects without diabetes will have their blood glucose levels monitored while in the hospital in people with Type 2 Diabetes and Peripheral Vascular Disease, run by University of British Columbia at 1 site in Canada.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 8 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Jan 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Canada. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: The study was stopped due to lack of resources of the study coordinator's time). Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Glycemic control. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 18 Jan 2018.
