Research paper thumbnail of GLUCOSE, C-PEPTIDE AND CORTISOL RESPONSE TO SURGERY UNDER GENERAL ANESTHESIA IN DIABETIC SUBJECTS WITH TREATMENT VARIABILITY

Diabetic patients are considered to be at increased risk of perioperative morbidity and mortality... more Diabetic patients are considered to be at increased risk of perioperative morbidity and mortality because of the involvement of their vital organs and the autonomic nervous system in the natural course of the disease. Various aspects of anesthesia and surgery cause stress induced hemodynamic, endocrine and metabolic changes in type 2 diabetic subjects. The present study was designed to investigate the surgical stress response difference between the patients groups those who are treated with only insulin and with insulin-oral hypoglycaemic drugs combination before surgery. Stress response was measured with the changes of blood glucose, C-peptide and cortisol.
