Infections are feared complications of surgery. It is important to identify factors that increase the risk of infection to prevent these complications. This study looked at the effects of diabetes and high blood sugar on the risk of infection associated with pain procedures. The researchers followed patients who had these procedures and looked for any infections that occurred afterward. They found that patients with diabetes and high blood sugar levels before surgery were more likely to develop infections after these procedures. More research can help establish blood sugar targets so that physicians can better manage this risk for their patients.
