Diabetes mellitus: anaesthetic management.

abstract：:The aim of this study was to determine whether permitting women in labour to eat a light diet would: (i) alter their metabolic profile, (ii) influence the outcome of labour, and (iii) increase residual gastric volume and consequent risk of pulmonary aspiration. Women were randomised to receive either a light diet (eat...
