title: [Electrocardiographic changes in hypoglycemia].
abstract: Several electrocardiographic anomalies have been described in association with hypoglycaemia. We report the case of a 70-year-old woman with hypoglycaemic coma whose electrocardiogram showed significant conduction anomalies, including atrioventricular block and intraventricular conduction disturbances, and repolarization abnormalities. These electrocardiographic changes disappeared after intravenous glucose administration.
