Résumé

Hyperglycemia on admission to the coronary care unit is associated with poor outcome. It has now been reasonably well established that intravenous insulin infusion during acute myocardial infarction has a protective role and reduces mortality. The present article reviews the current understanding of the cardioprotective effect of insulin and the recent advances in this area.
