Abstract
|
|
|
Since preoperative fasting rarely causes hypoglycemia and the stress induced by surgery and anesthesia usually causes hyperglycemia, preoperative supply of glucose-containing solutions is not routinely recommended in healthy children. But unexpected prolongation of preoperative fasting time can cause hypoglycemia. Here, we report a hypoglycemia caused by preoperative fasting in a 36 month-old girl without diabetes mellitus.
