RE: RE: PROACTIVE PROTOCOL-BASED MANAGEMENT OF HYPERGLYCEMIA AND DIABETES IN COLORECTAL SURGERY PATIENTS

[...]additional studies to investigate the effect of the protocol on surgical outcomes, following colorectal and other surgeries, are warranted. [...]a cost effectiveness analysis is currently underway to provide more detailed evidence about the economic implications or potential cost savings for patients and institutions. [...]while the diabetes management landscape has changed substantially since this protocol was implemented between January, 2011, and December, 2013, inpatient management of diabetes and perioperative hyperglycemia has remained largely unchanged.
