Official title

Cardiac Remote Ischemic Preconditioning Prior to Elective Major Vascular Surgery

Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

The investigators have previously shown that elective vascular surgery is a high-risk operation with an anticipated risk of either death or heart attack of 15%. This study is testing whether a protocol of remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) applied 24 hours prior to the operation is safe, feasible and reduces the incidence of an adverse, perioperative cardiac complication.
