About this study

Official title: The Effect of Remote Ischemic Preconditioning on Major Organ Function in Patients With Coronary Artery Disease Undergoing Orthopedic Surgery - a Randomized Controlled Trial

The investigators attempt to investigate the organ protective effect of remote ischemic conditioning in patients undergoing non-cardiac surgery with history of ischemic heart disease.

Read the detailed description

When adult patients with ischemic heart disease undergo non-cardiac surgery, perioperative ischemic complication may occur. These morbidity results in poor clinical outcomes. The incidence of perioperative myocardial ischemic event has been reported to be up to 19.7%. Remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) is a concept that a brief ischemic reperfusion of upper or lower extremity can transfer protection to the other vital organs from sustained ischemic reperfusion injury. Although RIPC is extensively studied in high risk cardiovascular surgery, it has not been tested in a non-cardiac surgery patients with a history of ischemic heart disease. Major organ injury including heart, lung and kidney will be evaluated in this randomized controlled trial.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Remote ischemic preconditioningProcedure or surgery

    three cycles of ischemia (5 min) / reperfusion (5 min) of available upper or lower limb with an automated machine using blood pressure cuff

  • Sham controlProcedure or surgery

    The patients had the same pneumatic cuff around the upper arm and similar maneuvers were performed, but pressure was not applied to the cuff.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Remote ischemic preconditioning in people with Angina Pectoris and Myocardial Infarction, run by Seoul National University Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Sep 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in South Korea. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

Troponin-I (time frame: postoperative day one). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 7 Sep 2017.
