Adverse Outcomes after Major Surgeries in Patients with Diabetes: A Multicenter Matched Study

The impact of diabetes on perioperative outcomes remains incompletely understood. Our purpose is to evaluate post-operative complications and mortality in patients with diabetes. Using the institutional and clinical databases of three university hospitals from 2009–2015, we conducted a matched study...

Sumario:The impact of diabetes on perioperative outcomes remains incompletely understood. Our purpose is to evaluate post-operative complications and mortality in patients with diabetes. Using the institutional and clinical databases of three university hospitals from 2009–2015, we conducted a matched study of 16,539 diabetes patients, aged >20 years, who underwent major surgery. Using a propensity score matching procedure, 16,539 surgical patients without diabetes who underwent surgery were also selected. Logistic regressions were used to calculate the odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for post-operative complications and in-hospital mortality associated with diabetes. Patients with diabetes had a higher risk of postoperative septicemia (OR 1.33, 95% CI 1.01–1.74), necrotizing fasciitis (OR 3.98, 95% CI 1.12–14.2), cellulitis (OR 2.10, 95% CI 1.46–3.03), acute pyelonephritis (OR 1.86, 95% CI 1.01–3.41), infectious arthritis (OR 3.89, 95% CI 1.19–12.7), and in-hospital mortality (OR 1.51, 95% CI 1.07–2.13) compared to people without diabetes. Previous admission for diabetes (OR 2.33, 95% CI 1.85–2.93), HbA1c >8% (OR 1.96, 95% CI 1.64–2.33) and fasting glucose >180 mg/dL (OR 1.90, 95% CI 1.68–2.16) were predictors for post-operative adverse events. Diabetes patients who underwent surgery had higher risks of infectious complications and in-hospital mortality compared with patients without diabetes who underwent similar major surgeries.
