Diabetic patients, especially those with poor diabetes control and long-standing hyperglycemia, may be at risk of developing delirium. The aim of this study was to analyze whether the occurrence of POD in cardiac surgery is associated with diabetes or elevated preoperative glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) level.Materials and methods: We performed a cohort analysis of prospectively collected data from a register of cardiac surgery department of a university hospital. Delirium assessment was performed twice a day during the first 5 days after the operation based on Diagnostic Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, fifth edition criteria.Results: We analyzed a cohort of 3,178 consecutive patients, out of which 1,010 (31.8%) were diabetic and 502 (15.8%) were diagnosed with POD. Patients with delirium were more often diabetic (42.03% vs 29.86%, P<0.001) and on oral diabetic medications (34.66% vs 24.07%, P<0.001), no difference was found in patients with insulin treatment. Preoperative HbA1c was elevated above normal (≥6%) in more delirious than nondelirious patients (44.54% vs 33.04%, P<0.001), but significance was reached only in nondiabetic patients (20.44% vs 14.86%, P=0.018). In univariate analysis, the diagnosis of diabetes was associated with an increased risk of developing POD (OR: 1.703, 95% CI: 1.401–2.071, P<0.001), but only for patients on oral diabetic medications (OR: 1.617, 95% CI: 1.319–1.983, P<0.001) and an association was noted between HbA1c and POD (OR: 1.269, 95% CI: 1.161–1.387, P<0.001). Multivariate analysis controlled for diabetes showed that POD was associated with age, heart failure, preoperative creatinine, extracardiac arteriopathy, and preoperative HbA1c level.Conclusion: More diabetic patients develop POD after cardiac surgery than nondiabetic patients. Elevated preoperative HbA1c level is a risk factor for postcardiac surgery delirium regardless of the diagnosis of diabetes.
