TREATMENT OF SEVERE HYPOGLYCEMIA: HIGH INTRAVENOUS GLUCOSE SOLUTION REQUIREMENT IN CHILDREN
Keywords:
diabetes mellitus, severe hypoglycemia, glucose solution dosage, age differencesAbstract
The study is aimed at determining the optimal dosage of intravenous glucose solutions for treating severe hypoglycemia in patients with diabetes when glucagon is unavailable. Special attention is given to analyzing age-related differences in glucose dosing.
