Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Main Objective: To observe the clinical effects of insulin, compared to placebo, on<br>hemodynamic parameters (blood pressure, heart rate and cardiac<br>output) in states of normal and beta-blocker-induced heart rate and<br>blood pressure suppression in healthy volunteers;Secondary Objective: To observe the effects of Insulin on clinical and biochemical measures<br>of resting energy expenditure and metabolism (ie free fatty acids) on days with insulin compared to days with placebo.<br>Furthermore, adverse reactions associated with insulin/placebo<br>administration are recorded.<br>Gastric emptying time on days with insulin compared to placebo;Primary end point(s): Change in cardiac output from baseline compared between study days;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: From baseline (T=0) to T+240 minutes.
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Secondary end point(s): 1: Change in blood pressure (systolic, diastolic and mean arterial<br>pressure in mmHg) and heart rate from baseline<br>compared between study days<br>2: Effects of Insulin on stroke volume, heart rate and blood pressure<br>parameters compared to days with placebo.<br>3: Percent change in plasma levels biochemical measurements<br>(cholesterol, low density lipoprotein, high-density lipoprotein, glucose,<br>sodium, potassium)<br>4: Peak plasma concentration (Cmax), time to peak plasma<br>concentration (Tmax) and area under the plasma concentration versus<br>time curve (AUC) of paracetamol on days with co-administration of<br>insulin compared to days with placebo (saline).<br> ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 1: From baseline (T=0) to T+240 minutes.<br>2: T-15, T 0, T 5, T 15, T 30, T 45, T 60, T 90, T 120, T180, T240<br>3: Baseline, +30, +60, +90,+120, +240 minutes.<br>4: Baseline (T=0), +15, +30, +45, +60, +120, +240, +255,+270,+300 minutes.<br>
