First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated Apr 28, 2026 · Updated 17 times

Summary

This study tests whether repeatedly cutting off blood flow to the arm for short periods (remote ischaemic conditioning) can improve how well the brain regulates its own blood supply in healthy adults aged 65 to 85. Participants will perform these sessions daily or three times a week for six weeks, or receive a sham treatment. Researchers will measure changes in brain blood flow control and other health markers before and after the program.
