โœฆ Synopsis

Summary

The protein-sparing effect of different calorific regimens [0ยท025 MJ (6 kcal); 0ยท105 MJ (25 kcal); 0ยท167 MJ (40 kcal) per kg body weight per 24 h] of postoperatively infused glucose has been studied in 18 patients undergoing operations of intermediate severity. Carbohydrate infusion has a progressive nitrogen-sparing effect. However, the increased negative nitrogen balance associated with surgical stress could not be prevented completely.

## Abstract Elective surgical operation in normally nourished patients is associated with an increase of up to 40 per cent in the urinary excretion of 3-methylhistidine during the first three postoperative days. This increase was statistically significant (P<0.01) on the second and third postoperat
