[Value of continuous registration of blood D-beta-hydroxybutyrate and glucose. Application in a case of acromegaly].
We describe the use of an autoanalyzer II for continuous whole blood D-beta-hydroxybutyrate and glucose monitoring. The former is analyzed by an enzymatic-fluorimetric determination. This method is simple, reliable and sensitive at low cost. It permits to record dynamic patterns of the two major energetic substrates in response to various stimuli, as shown in an acromegalic patient following a glucose load.
