Arms Assigned Interventions
Active Comparator: B Low dose GIK
This group will have low doses of glucose and insulin
 Drug: B Low Dose GIK
These patients will receive D5W+80unitsInsulin+40mEqKCL IV to keep blood glucose between 120-180mg/dl
Active Comparator: C High Dose GIK
This group will have high doses of insulin and glucose
 Drug: C High Dose GIK
This group will receive D20W+160units IV insulin to keep blood sugar between 120-180mg/dl
Active Comparator: A Insulin
This group will receive only an intravenous insulin infusion
 Drug: A IV Insulin drip
These patients will receive 100units of insulin in 100ml of saline intravenously to keep blood glucose between 120-180mg/dl.

Detailed Description:

Our previous study has shown that maintaining serum glucose between 120-180mg/dl in the perioperative period during CABG surgery in diabetic patients improves outcomes. The purpose of this trial is: (1) to determine whether outcomes can be improved by altering the content of glucose or insulin in these solutions (2)to determine the effect of these solutions and glycemic control on the inflammatory response of arterial and venous conduits used during surgery, (3) to determine whether the beneficial effects of improved glycemic control can be correlated with changes in the inflammatory response.
