1 OBJECTIVE: We sought to assess the role of glucose-insulin-potassium in providing myocardial protection in nondiabetic patients undergoing coronary artery surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass. Potassium insulin Homo sapiens
2 RESULTS: The glucose-insulin-potassium group experienced higher cardiac indices (P < .001) throughout infusion and reduced vascular resistance (P < .001). Potassium insulin Homo sapiens
3 The incidence of low cardiac output episodes was 15.9% (22/138) in the glucose-insulin-potassium group and 27.5% (39/142) in the placebo group (P = .021). Potassium insulin Homo sapiens
4 Inotropes were required in 18.8% (26/138) of the glucose-insulin-potassium group and 40.8% (58/142) of the placebo group (P < .001). Potassium insulin Homo sapiens
5 Fewer patients in the glucose-insulin-potassium group (12.3% [16/133]) versus those in the placebo group (23.4% [32/137]) had significant myocardial injury (P = .017). Potassium insulin Homo sapiens
