Summary

"Remote Ischaemic PreConditioning" (RIPC) is performed prior to partial nephrectomy. Postoperative calprotectin dynamics and Blood Oxygen-Level-Dependent (BOLD) MRI are used to to demonstrate the potential renoprotective effect of RIPC

Conditions

  • Reperfusion Injury

Interventions

PROCEDURE

RIPC

RIPC is delivered with a standard blood pressure cuff placed on the upper arm and another standard blood pressure cuff placed on the upper thigh. The cuffs are then simultaneously inflated to 200 mm HG and left inflated for 5 minutes, then deflated to 0 mmHG and left uninflated for 5 minutes. This cycle is repeated twice, so that the RIPC protocol takes 20 minutes in total. If the systolic blood pressure is \> 185mm HG the cuffs are inflated to 15 mmHG above that level.
