Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of Remote Ischaemic Preconditioning on perioperative ischaemic injury in patients undergoing cardiac surgery compared to control intervention.


Clinical Trial Description

Cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass is associated with a predictable incidence of myocardial, neurological and renal dysfunction. This significant morbidity and mortality is at least partly due to perioperative ischaemia. Remote ischaemic preconditioning (RIPC) is a novel, simple, non-invasive and inexpensive intervention by which ischaemia of non-vital tissue (skeletal muscles) protects remote organs (heart, brain and kidney) from a subsequent sustained episode of ischaemia. The investigators perform a multicenter randomized controlled study to evaluate that RIPC reduces teh severity of perioperative ischaemic injury in patients undergoing cardiac surgery, and results in about 1/3 risk reduction in the occurence of major adverse events. ;
