Factors determining inadequate hypoglycaemia during insulin tolerance testing (ITT) after pituitary surgery
Clinical Endocrinology, 06/19/09
Lee P et al. - FBG is an important determinant of the dose of insulin required to achieve adequate hypoglycaemia during an ITT in patients after pituitary surgery. A standard insulin dose of 0·1 U/kg is insufficient for adequate hypoglycaemia in patients with FBG > 5·5 mmol/l. Adequate response to a standard dose of insulin suggests a likelihood of cure of acromegaly or Cushing's disease after pituitary surgery.
