Abstract
Introduction. Bariatric surgery is the most effective method of obesity treatment, improving glycemic control in metabolism disorders. Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) is shown to be the most informative measurement in diabetes mellitus. There are data in the literature regarding the development of hypoglycemic episodes in the postoperative period. However, there is not enough data in the literature about perioperative CGM. The association of perioperative CGM with further hypoglycaemia requires further study.
Purpose of the study. To evaluate the perioperative CGM in a patient with morbid obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus during bariatric surgery (gastric bypass).
Materials and methods. A patient with morbid obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus underwent CGM, including 7 days before and after gastric bypass.
Results: In the first days of the postoperative period, according to CGM data, 5 hypoglycemic episodes with an average duration of 141 minutes were detected. 3 months after the operation, the patient also revealed hypoglycemic episodes.
Conclusion. It is impossible to exclude assotiation between perioperative hypoglycemia on CGM and further glycemic profile in patients after bariatric surgery.
