Summary

The aim of this study is to investigate whether RIPC protects the heart against ischemia reperfusion injury on the concentrically hypertrophied myocardium

Conditions

  • Patients With Elective Aortic Valve Replacement

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Remote ischemic preconditioning at left upper arm

Placement of automated cuff-inflator on the left upper arm after induction of anesthesia RIPCgroup-3 cycles of 5 min ischemia (300 mmHg inflation) \& 5 min reperfusion (deflation)

PROCEDURE

Control group
