Glucagon's Cardiovascular Effects With and Without Beta-blocker-induced Cardioinhibition

Summary

This trial investigates effects of a glucagon bolus injection on heart rate, blood pressure and cardiac output during beta-blocker-induced cardiodepression. Furthermore, the effects of two different doses of intravenous glucagon on hemodynamic parameters are explored.
