Previously the author studied about the electrolytes and glucose levels in thirty cases of mother undergoing caesarean section and their newborn babies. During the NPO time of mother lactated Ringer’s solution containing glucose was given. The results of the study showed that the potassium level of the baby was higher than that of mother, and the level of potassium of baby at birth was lower than that of two hours after birth. The glucose level of baby showed close correlationship with that of mother. Also the level of glucose of newborn baby at birth showed inverse correlationship with the amount of decrease of glucose level during two hours after birth. This time the authors tried to see if there is any difference in the results of the study if the mothers are given glucose free fluid during their NPO time.
Thirty-five cases of mother undergoing caesarean section and their newborn babies were investigated. To the mother glucose free Ringer’s lactated solution was given during NPO time.
Blood samples were taken from vein on one of upper extremities of mother and umbilical vein of newborn baby at birth, and femoral artery of newborn baby two hours after birth.
The results were as follows :
1. The levels of potassium in newborn babies were higher than those of mothers, and in the newborn the levels at two hours after birth were higher than those at birth.
2. The higher the level of glucose in mother, the higher in newborn baby at birth.
3. The higher the level of glucose in newborn baby at birth, the greater the level of de- crease during two hours after birth, and on the contrary the baby who had lower level of glucose showed the tendency to increase two hours after birth.
4. The NPO time and level of glucose of mother were 13.2±2.4 hours and 64.3±11.4mg/dl respectively, and the glucose level was lower than that of mothers’ (114.2±37.7mg/dl)without restriction of glucose administration.
5. The greater the level of glucose of mother the greater the difference of glucose level between mother and newborn baby.
6. Ketone body was not found in mother, newborn baby at birth and two hours after birth.
