Glucose-insulin-potassium infusion

Introduction

Synonyms and keywords:: GIK

Overview

Overview

GIK is a pharmacologic regimen that has been extensively studied as adjunctive therapy in STEMI patients to reduce reperfusion injury. The majority of recent trials do not demonstrate a benefit on clinical outcomes.[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12] [13] [14]
