    AbstractPerioperative ketoacidosis is an important adverse event related to the use of sodium glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitor (SGLT2i). We compared perioperative outcomes in patients on SGLT2i, before and after protocolised pre-operative cessation of the drug. There were no cases of clinically detected diabetic ketoacidosis in the 96 patients included in the study. Withdrawal of SGLT2i did not appear to alter significantly pre-operative glycaemia.© 2021 Royal Australasian College of Physicians.
