Summary

RIP-VALVE is a randomized, single blinded study that will test the hypothesis that remote ischemic preconditioning initiated before surgery reduces post-operative myocardial damage in aortic valve surgery. Infarct size will be determined by 72 hours area under curve of troponin-I.

Conditions

  • Aortic Valve Stenosis

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Control

Deflated blood pressure cuff placed on upper arm for 30min

PROCEDURE

Remote ischemic preconditioning

Blood pressure cuff placed on upper arm and inflated to 200 mmHg for 5 min and then deflated for 5 min. This cycle is initiated before aortic clamping and repeated 3 times in total
