Fractured Metacarpal Bone Clinical Trial
Official title:
Effects of Remote Ischemic Preconditioning in Bone Microcirculation
In trauma surgery and hand surgery treatment strategies of none healing bone fractures aim at replacing pseudarthrosis by well vascularized bone and improving microcirculation. Although previous studies indicate that remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) can accelerate bone healing in case of non-union, only a few studies focused on the elucidation of its mechanisms of action. Therefore, the aim of this study is to evaluate the microcirculatory effects of remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) on scaphoid bones and metacarpal bones and metatarsal bones in a human in-vivo setting for the first time.
