Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a system combining continuous glucose measurement with a computer-based algorithm for insulin delivery in patients undergoing elective cardiac surgery.

Conditions

• Hyperglycemia
• Cardiac Surgery

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
DEVICE	Continuous glucose monitoring system combined with enhanced model predictive control algorithm for intensive insulin treatment	Glucose measured with a real-time continuous glucose monitoring system served as an input for the enhanced model predictive control algorithm adjusting insulin infusion every 15 minutes for the first 24 hours after elective cardiac surgery
OTHER	Intensive insulin therapy using standard protocol	Insulin dosage according to the standard protocol for intensive insulin delivery used at Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery, General University Hospital, Prague.
