A Study of Remote Ischaemic Preconditioning in Patients With Atherosclerosis Undergoing Vascular Surgery
NCT ID: NCT02689414 Phase: NA Status: COMPLETED Enrollment: 98 Completion: 2019-02
Conditions
Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm, Peripheral Artery Disease, Carotid Artery Stenosis
Interventions
Remote ischaemic preconditioning, Control to RIPC
Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of preoperative remote ischaemic preconditioning (RIPC) on organ damage and the functional characteristics of arteries in patients undergoing vascular surgery. In addition, we investigate the connection between RIPC and changes in the functional characteristics of arteries and low molecular weight metabolites.
Primary Outcome
Carotide-femoral pulse velocity
