I work for a neurosurgeon and we use an Insulin drip on almost all our surgery patients. You have to remember that patient's under stress will sometimes have elevated blood sugars. When the glucose is high infection is high. Therefore we use the drip to keep glucose WNL and in turn low infection rates. Whether or not our patient's are diabetic they almost all will have an insulin drip. Hope this was helpful.:nuke:
