No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) has been revealed organ-protective effect in many previous clinical settings including coronary intervention or cardiovascular surgery. However its protective role during free flap reconstructive surgery in head and neck cancer patients has not yet been elucidated. The purpose of the current study is to evaluate the effect of RIPC on tissue oxygen saturation and skin temperature of the flap, as well as its organ-protective effect using Langendorff isolated heart ischemia-reperfusion model.

Conditions

  • Remote Ischemic Preconditioning

Interventions

PROCEDURE

remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC)

remote ischemic preconditioning consists of 4 cycles of 5-min ischemia and subsequent 5-min reperfusion using pneumatic cuff applied to upper arm

PROCEDURE

sham-RIPC

ischemia pressure less than 10 mmHg (sham-RIPC)
