Summary

The purpose of this study is to assess whether a large clinical trial testing the effect of RIPC on neurologic outcome in patients undergoing elective cervical decompression surge is warranted.

Conditions

  • Cervical Compression Myelopathy
  • Ischemia
  • Reperfusion Injury
  • Spinal Cord Injury

Interventions

PROCEDURE

limb remote ischemic preconditioning (LRIPC)

LRIPC consists of three 5-min cycles of right upper limb ischemia induced by an automated cuff-inflator placed on the upper arm and inflated to 200 mmHg,with an intervening 5 min reperfusion during which the cuff is deflated.
