Summary

Prospective, single center, single arm pilot study evaluating the feasibility of delivering remote ischemic conditioning (RIC) by emergency medical services (EMS) in the prehospital setting. Eligible patients will have chest pain or anginal equivalent symptoms and require ground ambulance transport to the hospital. All subjects will undergo the standard RIC procedure (i.e., up to four cycles of alternating 5-min inflation and 5-min deflation) with the autoRIC® device (CellAegis Devices, Inc., Toronto, Ontario). The primary objective is to evaluate the number of cycles of RIC completed in patients having the procedure initiated by EMS in the prehospital setting.
