1 Perioperative glucose control James Krinsley Purpose of review Hyperglycemia occurs commonly among acutely ill patients owing to a combination of counterregulatory and stress responses, as well as insulin resistance and deficiency, and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality in a variety of different patient populations. This manuscript reviews the adverse consequences of hyperglycemia in these different settings and focuses on perioperative glycemic management. Recent findings Hyperglycemia has a number of effects on the native immune system that may explain its role in increasing the risk of infection. Insulin may exert its beneficial effects by altering lipid metabolism as well as by modulating endothelial function through several mechanisms. Hyperglycemia during cardiac surgery is associated with increased risk of postoperative complications, including death. Several interventional studies have concluded that intensive glycemic management is beneficial, but there are limited data available from general surgical populations. Summary Hyperglycemia is associated with adverse outcomes in acutely ill adult patients and its treatment has been shown to improve mortality and morbidity in a variety of different settings. Additional studies are needed in heterogeneous populations of critically ill patients as well as in other populations of acutely ill patients, especially general surgical patients, to confirm the early studies and define the correct glycemic target.

Hyperglycemia that occurs in acutely ill patients, both diabetic and nondiabetic, has been recognized in a growing body of literature to be both a marker and a cause of adverse outcomes in a variety of different clinical contexts. This manuscript summarizes information about the mechanisms of the harmful effects of hyperglycemia, reviews recently published observational and interventional studies of hyperglycemia in acutely ill patients, focusing on the surgical population, and highlights gaps in the medical literature regarding perioperative glucose control. Why is hyperglycemia deleterious? A number of recent studies [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10, 11 ], including several excellent review articles, have helped to elucidate the different mechanisms of the deleterious effects of hyperglycemia in acutely ill patients and the beneficial effect of glycemic control in various populations. Broadly speaking, these include evaluations of the glycemic and nonglycemic metabolic effects of insulin, as well as the role of hyperglycemia in modulating the innate immune system and the effect of intensive insulin therapy on reversing these changes. A brief synopsis of some of the most current important work follows. Turina et al. [5 ] summarized some of the most important effects of hyperglycemia on immune defenses. These include in part the microvascular response, the adhesion and transmigration of leukocytes, the complement cascade, the cytokine network, chemokine formation, chemotaxis, phagocytosis, the generation of reactive oxygen species, and neutrophil apoptosis, accounting for the increase in infections and multisystem dysfunction seen among critically ill patients with hyperglycemia. A beneficial effect on lipid metabolism is one possible important consequence of intensive insulin therapy [6, 7,8 ]. Mesotten et al. [6 ] found that intensive insulin therapy correlated with an increase in the activity of two enzymes necessary for the peripheral uptake of glucose: skeletal muscle glucose transporter 4 and hexokinase. Moreover, intensive insulin therapy affected the lipid profile of the patients: mortality correlated with increasing triglyceride level as well as with a decrease 111
2 112 Intensive care in high-density lipoprotein and low-density lipoprotein levels below a threshold. These investigators hypothesized that low levels of high-density lipoprotein and lowdensity lipoprotein may contribute to increased infection risk by adversely affecting scavenging of endotoxin in the circulation. Siroen et al. [9 ] and Nirjveldt et al. [10] have also evaluated the effect of intensive insulin therapy on modulators of endothelial function in two recent studies. Microvascular dysfunction associated with a diminished availability of gaseous nitric oxide may explain the multiorgan system dysfunction and failure that occurs in the most critically ill patients [9 ]. Asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) inhibits the enzyme nitric oxide synthetase, which produces nitric oxide, and has been found to be an independent predictor of mortality in critically ill patients [9 ]. Siroen et al. [9 ] measured ADMA level in a subset of patients from the Leuven study (see below). ADMA levels increased significantly among patients in the control group during the first 2 days of intensive care unit (ICU) stay, whereas they did not change in the patients treated with continuous intravenous insulin. Moreover, ADMA levels were higher among nonsurvivors than among survivors, regardless of the treatment received. Endothelial activation is associated with the expression of several adhesion molecules, including E- and P- selectin, intracellular adhesion molecule and vascular cell adhesion molecule (VCAM), on the cell surface [11 ]. These activated molecules recruit leukocytes; subsequent leukocyte aggregation and adhesion lead to microvascular obstruction as well as increased microvascular permeability, important features of multiorgan system dysfunction. Nitric oxide helps modulate the interaction between the endothelium and leukocytes. Langouche et al. [11 ] investigated local activation of the endothelium and its relation to insulin therapy and outcomes. They found that intensive insulin therapy lowered circulating levels of intracellular adhesion molecule 1 and E-selectin, and led to decreased circulating nitric oxide levels by suppressing inducible nitric oxide synthetase gene expression; these mechanisms may help protect the vascular endothelium from injury and prevent organ system dysfunction. Observational studies The relationship between hyperglycemia and outcomes has been investigated recently among patients with neurologic illness [12,13,14,15,16 ], acute myocardial ischemia and infarct [17 19,20,21], trauma [22,23 ], and peripheral vascular disease [24]. Intraoperative hyperglycemia correlated with death or significant organ dysfunction among patients undergoing cardiovascular surgery [25 ]. There are fewer reports describing the relationship between hyperglycemia and outcomes of populations of general ICU patients. A series of 1826 consecutive admissions [26] to a mixed medical-surgical ICU found a striking relationship between mean glucose level during ICU stay and the rate of hospital mortality. An observational study of 523 patients, 85% who had had cardiac surgery, confirmed a strong relationship between glycemic control and mortality [27]. Finally, pre-icu glucose control, reflected by hemoglobin A 1C level, may help predict a patient s glycemic response to ICU admission [28 ]. Interventional studies Van den Berghe et al. [29,30] performed a single-center randomized, controlled prospective trial among 1548 surgical ICU patients receiving mechanical ventilation at the University of Leuven in Belgium, 63% following cardiovascular surgery. The therapeutic goal in the treated group was maintenance of euglycemia mg/ dl using a continuous intravenous infusion of insulin. There was a 34% reduction in mortality among the treated patients and a 40 50% reduction in important comorbidities. The Leuven trial has catalyzed the development of glucose-management protocols in ICUs worldwide and is cited in practice standards promulgated by leading organizations [31,32 ]. Moreover, the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Hospitals and Organizations [33] is considering glycemic control as a core measure for hospital performance. Nevertheless, Bellomo et al. [34] have raised several issues regarding this study: the study was not blinded, raising the possibility of bias; the study population precludes generalizability of the findings; and the very high dextrose administration is not typical of ICU treatment and may have actually contributed to the high (5.1%) mortality of the cardiovascular surgery patients in the control group. Finally, the loose level of glycemic control in the control group (glycemic target mg/dl) would be difficult to justify in 2006 in view of accumulating data demonstrating the deleterious effect of glucose levels significantly below this treatment threshold. The only other published study of intensive glucose management was performed in a community hospital setting among a mixed population of medical and surgical patients, none following cardiovascular surgery [35 ]. This before-and-after study compared the outcomes of 800 patients admitted just prior to the institution of the protocol with those of the first 800 patients treated with the protocol. The noncontrolled, nonrandomized design is the main limitation of the study. The treatment goal
3 Perioperative glucose control Krinsley mg/dl was less strict than was used in the Leuven trial. There was a 29% reduction in hospital mortality of the treated patients, from 20.9 to 14.8%, as well as a reduction in the development of new renal insufficiency and in the number of patients who required red blood cell transfusions. Since completion of the published study, the subsequent 1200 patients admitted to the ICU sustained a 13.6% hospital mortality rate (Krinsley, unpublished observation). Two recent studies have investigated the effect of insulin and glucose administration among patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). The DIGAMI 2 study [36 ] followed the DIGAMI 1 study [37] of glucose insulin potassium infusion (GIK) among diabetics with AMI, which had demonstrated a reduction in 1- year mortality from 28 to 19% in the treated group. The new study, involving 1253 patients with type 2 diabetes, was hindered by a lack of appropriate funding and by small patient enrollment spread across a large number of centers [38]. Mortality did not vary among the two treatment and one control groups; glycemic control was, however, no better in the two treatment groups than in the control group. The CREATE- ECLA trial evaluated the effect of GIK infusion in AMI in patients from 470 centers worldwide [39 ]. GIK infusion did not have an effect on mortality, cardiac arrest or the development of cardiogenic shock. The treated group actually demonstrated worsened glycemic control; it is possible that this may have blunted any potential benefit of insulin. There was a strong relationship between 30-day mortality and baseline glucose level among the entire group. The messages of these two studies are, first, that GIK infusion cannot be recommended as a therapy for AMI and, second, that the strong relationship between glycemic levels and mortality in AMI was confirmed. There are only a few published studies involving glycemic management protocols in postoperative populations; most involve cardiovascular patients. Furnary et al. [40,41 ] have, since 1992, implemented intensive glycemic management using continuous intravenous insulin infusions among diabetic patients undergoing cardiovascular surgery. This pioneering work has demonstrated a strong association between glycemic control and deep sternal wound infections as well as mortality. This work has been criticized because of its observational, noncontrolled design, but, to this reviewer, these objections are overwhelmed by the size of the population studied and the strength and consistency of the findings. Lazar et al. [42 ] evaluated GIK therapy in a small series of cardiovascular surgery patients. The treated group achieved better glycemic control than did the control group. Beneficial outcomes included decreases in the infection rate, atrial fibrillation, the use of inotropic support, length of stay, and duration of mechanical ventilation, as well as improved 2-year survival and a lower incidence of recurrent ischemia. There are several limitations to this study. It was completed in an unblinded manner in a single institution and involved a small number of patients. More importantly, the liberal glycemic target (250 mg/dl in the control group) does not correspond to the standard of care in In other words, we have learned that severe hyperglycemia is deleterious, but this trial does not help determine the correct glycemic target. Moreover, although Lazar et al. s study does not answer whether the observed benefit was attributable to glucose, potassium or insulin, the AMI studies noted above suggest that the insulin administration was determinative. A group of investigators from Vanderbilt University [43] performed a before-and-after trial of the effect of a glycemic management protocol on the outcomes of patients admitted to a trauma ICU who required mechanical ventilation. This study reports no change in the incidence of ventilator-associated pneumonia, surgical site infection or mortality between the two groups. However, glycemic control was nearly identical between the two groups. Hyperglycemia was associated with adverse outcomes in both groups. Once again, it is difficult to demonstrate beneficial outcomes of a glycemic management protocol that does not produce significant differences in glycemic control between the treatment and the control group. There are no studies in the literature specifically evaluating the effect of tight glucose control on populations of general surgical patients. Outcome data [29] from the small number of general patients enrolled in the Leuven trial are difficult to interpret in the absence of severity adjustment. The Stamford Hospital 1600 patient before-and-after study [35 ] included a total of 335 patients with general surgical diagnoses; among this group, there was a 48.8% relative reduction in mortality, from 16.8 to 8.6% (P = 0.04). One small randomized study [44], involving only 61 patients, reported a significant decrease in nosocomial infections in the treated group; the protocol in this case did lead to a significant improvement in glycemic control. Enthusiasm about these positive results must be tempered by the small sample size of the study group. Protocol implementation Several groups have recently reported their experience promulgating intensive glycemic management protocols among cardiovascular surgery patients, with targeted
4 114 Intensive care blood glucose ranges of mg/dl [45], mg/dl [46] and mg/dl [47]. All groups reported improvements in glycemic control without the development of clinically significant hypoglycemia. Most glycemic management protocols rely heavily on the bedside measurement of glucose using point-ofcare devices. These chemistry-based analyzers were developed for the outpatient diabetic population; their accuracy in the ICU setting is worth validating. Finkielman et al. [48 ] performed a retrospective review of the records of 1192 consecutive ICU admissions to identify instances when simultaneous glucose measurements were made using a bedside chemistry analyzer. The limits of agreement between the two measurements, defined by the authors as 2 SD, were mg/dl and 27.1 mg/dl. In other words, if the plasma glucose level measured by the central analyzer yielded a result of 150 mg/dl, the concomitant blood glucose value obtained by the point-of-care chemistry analyzer would, 95% of the time, be within the large range of mg/dl. These data are sobering in an era when many ICUs are attempting to institute protocols targeting euglycemia. Future directions and needs This review article on perioperative glucose control has, by necessity, a major omission the absence of any data evaluating the effect of intensive glucose-management protocols on populations of general surgical patients. These data do not yet exist. It is not proven that the benefits of intensive glycemic management reported in the two ICU studies [29,35 ] necessarily extend to general surgery patients. Moreover, the appropriate glycemic target needs to be determined. Data from the Leuven study [30] demonstrate that mortality and morbidity were lowest among patients who maintained mean glucose levels <110 mg/dl, intermediate among patients with mean glucose levels of mg/dl and highest among patients with mean glucose levels >150 mg/dl. The Stamford Hospital study targeted 140 mg/dl, not 110 mg/dl, but a large observational series from the same ICU [26] reported that the lowest mortality occurred among patients with a mean glucose during ICU stay of mg/dl; this rate was better than seen even in those patients with a mean glucose during ICU stay of mg/dl. New data on the effect of intensive glycemic management among a heterogeneous population of critically ill patients will be available in the near future. The Australian and New Zealand Intensive Care Society Clinical Trials Group is currently performing a large prospective multicenter study (NICE Normoglycemia in Intensive Care Evaluation); glycemic targets are mg/dl in the treatment group and mg/dl in the control group [49 ]. Note how much this control-group target has changed since publication of the Leuven study. Completion of these new trials is eagerly awaited to confirm those data we currently have on the effect of intensive glucose management in critically ill patients. Finally, two new studies document the potential cost savings accruing from the implementation of intensive glycemic management. The authors of the Leuven [50 ] and Stamford Hospital [51] studies have found that the decreases in mortality and morbidity enjoyed by their patients were accompanied by substantial reductions in the cost of patient care. These additional bottom-line benefits of this relatively simple intervention will likely provide additional impetus to the adoption of tight glycemic control as a standard of care among acutely and critically ill patients.
