Summary

Partial Nephrectomy has become the standard treatment in patients with tumours \<7cm (T1). Even though this is a nephron sparing surgery, there is still potential for acute kidney injury, due to ischemia during the surgery. Remote Ischemia Preconditioning may prevent acute kidney injury and in turn chronic kidney disease. Remote Ischemia pre-conditioning involves applying a blood pressure cuff and inflating and deflating several times immediately prior to surgery.

Conditions

Interventions

DEVICE

CellAegis' autoRIC™ Device

Patients in the active group will have the autoRIC device (like a blood pressure cuff) inflated and deflated to a pressure of 200 mmHg in four 5 minute cycles with intervening 5 minutes of reperfusion with the cuff deflated between cycles
