Abstract: Objective To compare the effects of invert sugar versus 10% glucose on the blood glucose concentrations of patients in neurosurgical intensive care unit .Methods This is a prospective ,randomized ,double blind and compared study .A total of 40 in-sulin-requiring neurosurgical critical patients were randomized to receive intravenous ,1 000 mL ,either 10% invert sugar (experi-mental group) or 10% glucose(control group) on their first day when they were admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU ) .Blood glucose concentrations were measured every four hours and liver and kidney function indicators were recorded respectively .We’ve also compared the difference of the blood glucose concentrations changes between the two groups .Results There were significant differences in the glucose concentration between the two treatment groups (P<0 .05) ,whereas no significant differences in the inci-dences of hypoglycemia ,renal failure and hepatic damage were observed .No allergic reactions were found in both groups .Conclusion 10% invert sugar is a better choice for neurosurgical critical patients who need regular insulin infusion to control blood glucose .
