简要总结
NULL HYPOTHESIS • There is no difference in the incidence of hypoglycemia among preterms receiving either two hourly 10% dextrose boluses or 10% dextrose infusion by burettes during the 72 hours of admission in Special Care Unit- Mulago Hospital.
ALTERNATE HYPOTHESIS
• Use of two hourly 10% dextrose boluses increases the incidence of hypoglycemia by 30% compared to 10% dextrose infusion by burettes among preterms admitted to Special Care Unit in the first 72 hours of admission.
