[Carnitine in postoperative parenteral treatment]
Abstract:
The Authors study the effect of intravenous L-Carnithine on the free plasma amino acid pattern in the post-operative course of a group of 25 selected patients who underwent toracic and abdominal elective surgical procedures. They compared the results with the data from another group of patients, in conditions similar to the former, but who did not receive Carnithine. The results show that Carnithine is able to reduce gluconeogenesis and proteolysis, probably by an improvement of lipolysis; so the Authors believe that Carnithine carries a useful contribution in the post-operative care of the surgical patient.
