First seen Nov 20, 2025 · Last updated May 07, 2026 · Updated 20 times
Summary
This study tests whether repeatedly inflating and deflating a blood pressure cuff on a patient's leg soon after a cardiac arrest can reduce brain damage. The approach, called remote ischemic post-conditioning (RIPOST), aims to protect the brain from injury caused by blood flow returning after a stoppage. The trial will enroll 48 adults in the ICU and measure brain injury markers in the blood.
