Abstract:

Objective: To explore whether diabetic patients with ideal daily blood glucose management can get unexpected benefits during total hip arthroplasty compared with diabetic patients with poor daily blood glucose management. Method: 184 postmenopausal women with type 2 diabetes mellitus who underwent total hip arthroplasty in our hospital from January 1st, 2020, to April 30th, 2023, were analyzed retrospectively. The postmenopausal women with ideal daily blood glucose management were taken as the study group, and the postmenopausal women with poor daily blood glucose management as the control group. There were 109 cases in the study group and 75 cases in the control group. The differences in perioperative indexes such as Operation Time (OT), intraoperative Blood Loss (IBL), Postoperative Drainage (PD), Days of Antibiotic Use (DAU), Reaching the Time of VAS 3 score (RTVAS 3), Length of Stay (LOS) and Hospitalization Cost (HC) were compared between the two groups. Results: The PD, the RTVAS 3, and the LOS in the study group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in OT, IBL, DAU, and HC between the study group and the control group (P>0.05). Conclusion: With the help of the comparison of the event of total hip arthroplasty, we found that postmenopausal women who adhere to the daily management of blood glucose and whose blood glucose level is at an ideal level have less blood loss, faster pain relief, and earlier discharge than those with poor daily blood glucose management.
