Randomized Controlled Trial
Does 6% hydroxyethyl starch 130/0.4 impact differently on blood glucose than 4% gelatin in patients receiving open heart surgery?
To investigate whether starch-based colloid may impact differently on blood glucose than a gelatin-based colloid in adult patients receiving open heart surgery. ⋯ With the data available, we could not prove that starch-based colloid (HES130) had a different impact on intra-operative blood glucose than a gelatin-based colloid in adult patients receiving open heart surgery.
