Biospecimen Description:

Estimated Enrollment: 300
Study Start Date: September 2006
Estimated Study Completion Date: October 2008
Detailed Description:

This is a prospective study to define the relationship between time profile of glucose control before, during and after surgery with patient variables, surgical variables and anesthetic variables. Serum glucose levels will be measured preoperatively and then at 30 minute intervals during surgery. Pain score, pain medication and glucose levels will be measured in the post anesthesia recovery room.
