Trial summary

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) poses a significant burden on the patients and the health care system. The increasing number of surgery performed in elderly population results in an increased number of perioperative T2DM-related adverse effects. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Retrospective Analysis of Seasonal Trends of Respiratory Morbidity in Diabetic Patients

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) poses a significant burden on the patients and the health care system. The increasing number of surgery performed in elderly population results in an increased number of perioperative T2DM-related adverse effects. T2DM has a prevalence of 30-40% in a population undergoing cardiovascular surgery. Cardiac surgery, especially cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is also known to deteriorate respiratory mechanics.

Therefore, the study is aimed at a retrospective analysis of seasonal trends in respiratory consequences of T2DM, i.e.: i: distribution of patients with and without T2DM presenting for elective cardiac surgery during the two-year examination period; ii: characterization of respiratory co-morbidities in the patients, iii: exploring whether the respiratory mechanics at presentation and those caused by cardiac surgery exhibit different trends in T2DM and control patients.

Read the detailed description

Our study is a retrospective analysis of patient records from all patients undergoing elective cardiac surgery between January 2007 to December 2018 at the Second Department of Internal Medicine and Cardiology Centre Cardiac Surgical Unit, University of Szeged.

Electronic and paper documentation will be examined and anonymously analysed for the following information:

  1. date of cardiac surgery,
  2. type of cardiac surgery procedure,
  3. demographic data (age, height, weight),
  4. presence of T2DM (previous diagnosis, fasting plasma glucose level, glycated haemoglobin [HbA1C]),
  5. presence of respiratory co-morbidities (e.g. asthma, COPD, etc.),
  6. presence of other circulatory co-mobidities (e.g. hypertension, previous stroke, vascular stenosis)
  7. respiratory mechanical parameters before and after cardiac surgery, 7. presence of perioperative respiratory complications, 8. history of smoking 9. blood gas measurements before, during and after surgery

Time series statistical analysis of all data will be carried out to discover the presence of seasonal trends in both diabetic and control patients. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) will be carried out to explore global differences between diabetic and control patients.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Seasonal variation in the incidence of diabetic patients undergoing cardiac surgery

    All patient data from the time period 2006-2018 will be retrospectively analysed to explore the seasonal trends of diabetic patients (Type 1 and Type 2) undergoing cardiac surgery at a university hospital setting.

    The relative incidence of diabetic patients will be evaluated on a monthly basis in the study period.

    Measured: Retrospective data analysis (2006-2018)

  2. Anthropometric data of patients undergoing cardiac surgery

    All patient data from the time period 2006-2018 will be retrospectively analysed to explore the seasonal trends of diabetic patients (Type 1 and Type 2) undergoing cardiac surgery at a university hospital setting.

    Anthropometric data will be collected from the patient records: height (meters) and weight (kilograms) of each patient will be collected from the hospital medical records, then these data will be combined to report BMI (kg/m^2).

    Measured: Retrospective data analysis (2006-2018)

  3. Comorbidities of diabetic patients undergoing cardiac surgery

    All patient data from the time period 2006-2018 will be retrospectively analysed to explore the seasonal trends of diabetic patients (Type 1 and Type 2) undergoing cardiac surgery at a university hospital setting.

    Co-morbidities (COPD, asthma, hypertension, etc.) of each patient will be collected from the hospital medical records.

    Measured: Retrospective data analysis (2006-2018)

  4. Smoking habits of patients undergoing cardiac surgery

    All patient data from the time period 2006-2018 will be retrospectively analysed to explore the seasonal trends of diabetic patients (Type 1 and Type 2) undergoing cardiac surgery at a university hospital setting.

    Reported smoking habits (present smoker/previous smoker/never smoker; number of packs / day; duration) of each patient will be collected from the hospital medical records.

    Measured: Retrospective data analysis (2006-2018)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Diabetes Mellitus and Respiratory Complication, run by Szeged University at 1 site in Hungary.

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 1 inclusion and 2 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 May 2019. 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 Hungary. 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. 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?

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?

Seasonal variation in the incidence of diabetic patients undergoing cardiac surgery (time frame: Retrospective data analysis (2006-2018)). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03967639, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 30 May 2019.
