TO all I want to know how much would the blood sugar level increase if
I am infused with 5% dextrose water/Normal saline. The same way if I
give 25% dextrose in case of hypoglycemia patient how shouldthe blood
sugar increase. so what I want to know is the exact concentration to
give to increase a blood sugar level to bring it normal e.g. If one
persons blood sugar level is 30mg/dl how much should I infuse
5%dextrose to make it around 100mg/dl.

If you don't know how to do it, you should give the job to someone who knows
how. Any answer that you get from a newsgroup would be suspect.
