Arm & leg squeeze could save lives in High-Risk heart surgery

NCT ID NCT07383909

Summary

This study is testing if a simple technique called remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) can protect patients' organs during emergency surgery for a life-threatening tear in the body's main artery. During surgery, a blood pressure cuff will be inflated and deflated on an arm and leg to potentially reduce the risk of serious complications like heart, brain, or kidney problems. Researchers will compare this technique to a sham procedure in about 1,300 patients to see if it safely improves recovery.
