Gastric emptying, glucose metabolism and gut hormones: evaluation of a common preoperative carbohydrate beverage
Publikation: Bidrag til tidsskrift › Tidsskriftartikel › Forskning › fagfællebedømt
To study the gastric-emptying rate and gut hormonal response of two carbohydrate-rich beverages. A specifically designed carbohydrate-rich beverage is currently used to support the surgical patient metabolically. Fruit-based beverages may also promote recovery, due to natural antioxidant and carbohydrate content. However, gastric emptying of fluids is influenced by its nutrient composition; hence, safety of preoperative carbohydrate loading should be confirmed. Because gut hormones link carbohydrate metabolism and gastric emptying, hormonal responses were studied.
