Glucose and insulin responses in sheep subjected to a second episode of hemorrhagic shock.
These studies indicated that the responses of the sheep beta cell parallel mnay of those seen in man. Regulation by pH, potassium, and epinephrine and suggested, as is the existence of a two-pool system for insulin synthesis and release which is responsive to glucose. Differences in glucose and insulin responses following a second episode of shock are noted. It is shown that the addition of hypertonic glucose to a resuscitation regimen is associated with a response to a second episode of shock that is more nearly like that to a first episode of shock.
