Why the study?
Does a modified insulin infusion protocol maintain blood glucose levels within target range in Japanese patients after open-heart surgery compared to empirical therapy?
Does a modified insulin infusion protocol maintain blood glucose levels within target range in Japanese patients after open-heart surgery compared to empirical therapy?
A modified insulin infusion protocol tailored for Japanese patients after open-heart surgery safely maintains target blood glucose levels with less management burden compared to empirical therapy.

Offers less burdensome glucose control for Japanese cardiac surgery patients; leaves open randomized validation.
The authors examined the appropriateness of an IIP, which was modified to fit the Japanese population, who were usually less obese and less insulin-resistant. This IIP maintained blood glucose levels within the target range in patients who underwent open-heart surgery as equally well as the previous empirical therapy. These findings confirm the efficiency and safety of our IIP with less burden in blood glucose management of Japanese patients.
