[Is the use of large amounts of glucose in parenteral feeding a problem?].
Intravenous feeding with glucose as the sole carbohydrate was analyzed in a retrospective study of 30 patients. Very good assimilation of intravenous glucose without dangerous blood sugar variations could be demonstrated. As the administration of glucose was increased stepwise in the initial phase, the incidence of glucose intolerance was minimal. The good correlation of blood and urinary sugar shows that there is no problem in the control of carbohydrate metabolism during intravenous alimentation with glucose, and that urine samples provide adequate control after the initial phase.
