Hidden danger: prediabetes patients face high blood sugar during surgery

NCT ID NCT07662980

First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 2 times

Summary

This study will track 750 adults with prediabetes who are scheduled for non-cardiac surgery. Researchers will measure their blood sugar levels before, during, and after surgery to see how often high blood sugar occurs. They will also check if high blood sugar is linked to more complications after surgery. The goal is to better understand risks in this group and guide future care.
