[HTML][HTML] Cardioprotective effects of glucose-insulin-potassium infusion in patients undergoing cardiac surgery: A systematic review and meta-analysis
The infusion of glucose-insulin-potassium (GIK) has yielded conflicting results in terms of
cardioprotective effects. We conducted a meta-analysis to examine the impact of
perioperative GIK infusion in early outcome after cardiac surgery. Randomized controlled
trials (RCTs) were eligible if they examined the efficacy of GIK infusion in adults undergoing
cardiac surgery. The main study endpoint was postoperative myocardial infarction (MI) and
secondary outcomes were hemodynamics, any complications and hospital resources …
