The Effect of Remote Ischemic Preconditioning in Aortic Valve Replacement Surgery
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The study objective is to verify if a non-invasive remote ischemic preconditioning procedure (blood pressure cuff on the arm) is cardioprotective when applied before an aortic valve replacement surgery.

Active Comparator: Control group Sham remote ischemic preconditioning on the right arm is induced with a blood pressure cuff inflation at 20 mm Hg for 5 min and followed by a 5 min reperfusion at 0 mm Hg. The sham ischemia-reperfusion cycle is performed 3 times for a total of 30 min. This procedure is done after anesthetic induction, but before the patient is placed on cardiopulmonary bypass. A 20 mm Hg blood pressure cuff on the right arm does not induce ischemia. |
Procedure: Blood pressure cuff inflation
Cuff pressure for ischemia sham is 20 mm Hg, ischemia is 200 mm Hg and reperfusion is 0 mm Hg

Experimental: Intervention group Remote ischemic preconditioning on the right arm is induced with a blood pressure cuff inflation at 200 mm Hg for 5 min and followed by a 5 min reperfusion at 0 mm Hg. The ischemia-reperfusion cycle is performed 3 times for a total of 30 min. This procedure is done after anesthetic induction, but before the patient is placed on cardiopulmonary bypass. |
Procedure: Blood pressure cuff inflation
Cuff pressure for ischemia sham is 20 mm Hg, ischemia is 200 mm Hg and reperfusion is 0 mm Hg

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Change in biochemical markers of myocardial ischemia [6, 12, 24 and 48 hours post-operatively]
Troponin T-HS and CK-MB concentration
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Post-operative complications [post-operatively until 30 days]
Monitoring the safety of the strategy by monitoring post-operative complications
