IMMEDIATE Trial - Out of Hospital Administration of Glucose, Insulin and Potassium.

Summary

The purpose of this study is to test the impact of pharmacological myocardial metabolic support, in the form of intravenous (IV) glucose, insulin and potassium (GIK), for the treatment of patients with threatened or established acute myocardial infarction (AMI).
