Summary

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a well-recognized complication after cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). The aim of this study is to reduce the incidence of AKI by implementing remote ischemic preconditioning and to evaluate the dose-response relationship using the biomarkers urinary \[TIMP-2\] \*\[IGFBP7\] in high risk patients undergoing cardiac surgery.

Conditions

  • Cardiac Surgery, Aortocoronary Bypass

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC)

3 cycles or more cycles of 5 to 10-min inflation of a blood-pressure cuff to 200 mm HG (or at least to a pressure 50 mmHG higher than the systolic arterial pressure) to one upper arm followed by 5 min reperfusion with the cuff deflated. In Non-Responder two additional cycles of 10 min cuff inflation will be performed in arm 6.
