No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The present study will evaluate whether treatment with daily remote ischemic conditioning for a 28±4-day period induces beneficial effects in subjects with and without chronic ischemic heart failure in terms of improved left ventricular contractile function and exercise capacity.

Conditions

  • Chronic Systolic Heart Failure

Interventions

OTHER

Daily ischemic conditioning treatment

RIC stimulus will be conducted as 4 x 5 minutes upper arm ischemia achieved by inflation of a blood pressure cuff to 200 mmHg and 5 minutes reperfusion between inflations. The procedure will be performed using the AutoRICTM (CellAegis Devices Inc., Toronto, Ontario, Canada).
