Summary
This study tested a technique called remote ischemic conditioning in 100 people undergoing surgery to open a blocked neck artery. The approach uses a blood pressure cuff on the arm to briefly restrict blood flow, which may help protect the brain from damage during the procedure. Researchers measured new brain lesions on MRI scans to see if the technique was safe and effective.
