Abstract |
Serum glucose changes by constant infusion of glucose at the rate of 8 mg/kg/min were studied in
20 neonates. Serum glucose level elevated from 41 ±8 mg/dl to 80 ±31 mg/dl within 10 minutes of
infusion. In some cases hyperglycemia above 150 mg/dl was observed from 40 minutes of infusion.
Constant glucose infusion was found to be useful for elevation of glucose level without hyperglycemia
in early phase of therapy. But after 40 minutes of infusion, reevaluation of serum glucose and
reduction of infusion rate may be necessary to prevent hyperglycemia.
