Glycaemic efficacy and safety of linagliptin compared to a basal‐bolus insulin regimen in patients with type 2 diabetes undergoing non‐cardiac surgery: A multicentre randomized clinical trial

Abstract

For patients with T2D undergoing non-cardiac surgery who presented with mild to moderate hyperglycaemia (BG < 11.1 mmol/L), daily linagliptin is a safe and effective alternative to multi-dose insulin therapy, resulting in similar glucose control with lower hypoglycaemia.
