Perioperative Management of Patients Receiving Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter 2 Inhibitors: Development of a Clinical Guideline at a Large Academic Medical Center.
Journal of Cardiothoracic and Vascular Anesthesia 2024 January
The use of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) is increasing rapidly for patients with diabetes, heart failure, and chronic kidney disease. These medications can cause euglycemic diabetic ketoacidosis in the perioperative period, and the Food and Drug Administration recently updated their recommendations that they be held for at least 3-to-4 days preoperatively. There is a paucity of guidelines for the perioperative management of patients taking SGLT2i who present for emergent surgery or elective surgery having not held the medications per Food and Drug Administration guidelines. At the University of Pennsylvania, a multidisciplinary team from the Departments of Anesthesiology, Endocrinology, and Pharmacy has developed comprehensive guidelines detailing preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative management for patients using these medications. In this article, the authors present these guidelines and discuss challenges encountered while implementing them at a large academic medical center with satellite hospitals and surgery centers with varying resources and patient populations.
