Summary

The PATCH pilot trial aims to establish feasibility and determine the sample size of a future, large-scale, multi-site RCT, as well as reinforce the long-standing known safety profile of glucose, insulin, and potassium (GIK) and explore the physiologic response. We hypothesize that the use of GIK in non-diabetic patients undergoing abdominal surgery, will reduce rates of morbidity \& death compared to standard of care treatment. In brief, primary outcomes of interest include estimation of the standard deviation (to derive a sample size estimation) and the ability to recruit target population, assessment of patient compliance/burden, and assessment of provider compliance/burden (feasibility).

Conditions

  • Surgery
  • Non Diabetic Hyperglycemia

Interventions

DRUG

Crystalloid Infusion

placebo

DRUG

glucose, insulin, and potassium (GIK)

GIK formulation: 100 g/L glucose, 33 U/L insulin, and 40 mmol/L KCl Reference PMID: 32151220. Formulation represents a 50% reduction in compounded solute combination from the reference study, which allows for administration via peripheral IV.
