A beverage for preoperative use is disclosed, which comprises essentially of a hypotonic aqueous solution of a carbohydrate mixture consisting of at least one member from each of the groups mono-, di-, and polysaccharides in an amount of 8 - 20, preferably 9 - 15 g carbohydrates/100 ml solution. The invention also relates to a hypotonic aqueous solution as defined above for the use as a beverage for preoperative intake, to the use of mono-, di- and polysaccarides for the preparation of such a hypotonic aqueous solution and to the use of a dry substance comprising essentially A) a carbohydrate mixture consisting of 10 - 30 % by weight of at least one monosaccharide, 10 - 30 % by weight of at least one disaccharide and at least one polysaccharide as the balance to 100 % by weight of said mixture and B) minor amounts of salts, flavoring and preservatives for the preparation of a hypotonic beverage for preoperative intake. Finally there is also disclosed a method for suppressing the negative influence on patient carbohydrate metabolism after surgery, and improving the defence capacity of the patient upon bleeding in connection with or after the operation, which method comprises preoperative oral administration to the patient an effective amount of a hypotonic aqueous solution as defined above. |
