Conditions

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Remote Ischemic Preconditioning

RIPC will be induced during anesthesia by four 5-min cycles of upper limb ischemia and 5-min reperfusion using a blood-pressure cuff inflated to a pressure 15 mm Hg greater than the systolic arterial pressure measured via the arterial line.

PROCEDURE

Control/sham procedure
