About this study
Remote ischaemic preconditioning has shown its cardiac protective effect during heart surgery including coronary artery bypass graft surgery, congenital heart disease and aneurysm. However, no data was reported on heart valve disease surgery. Rheumatic heart disease is one of the major heart diseases requiring surgery in China. Thus, the investigators chose heart valve disease as a focus to see whether remote ischaemic preconditioning also has cardiac protective effect during heart valve surgery.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
remote ischaemic preconditioningProcedure or surgery
Remote ischaemic preconditioning consisted of three 5-min cycles of right upper arm ischaemia, which was induced by an automated cuff -inflator placed on the right upper arm and inflated to 200 mm Hg, with an intervening 5 min of reperfusion during which the cuff was deflated. There was a 5- to 10-min interval between completion of the remote ischaemic preconditioning protocol and initiation of bypass.Control patients had a deflated cuff placed on the right upper arm for 30 min.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| treatment | Experimental | remote ischaemic preconditioning Receives: Procedure: remote ischaemic preconditioning |
| untreated | No intervention | control |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
plasma troponin I level
The investigators will measure the plasma troponin I level in several time points before and after surgery in each patient.
Measured: with 7 days after surgery
Secondary outcomes (1)
serum creatinine
Measured: within 7 days after surgery

However, no data was reported on heart valve disease surgery. Rheumatic heart disease is one of the major heart diseases requiring surgery in China. Thus, the investigators chose heart valve disease as a focus to see whether remote ischaemic preconditioning also has cardiac protective effect during heart valve surgery.

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
plasma troponin I level (time frame: with 7 days after surgery). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01175681, which also lists 2 linked publications.
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
