Summary

This study tests whether doing repeated cycles of brief arm blood-flow restriction (remote ischemic preconditioning) over several months can improve blood flow to the heart muscle in people who have had coronary artery bypass grafting. Researchers will measure heart perfusion at 3 and 6 months and track major heart events for one year. About 210 adults with three blocked coronary arteries scheduled for bypass surgery are eligible.
