A 61‐year old woman with severe coronary artery disease underwent three‐vessel coronary bypass surgery. Difficulty was encountered in terminating cardiopulmonary bypass, but there was dramatic improvement following the administration of intravenous insulin. The use of insulin to facilitate termination of cardiopulmonary bypass is discussed.
