About this study

Official title: Implications of Remote Ischemic Preconditioning on Liver Function in Adults Undergoing Cardiac Surgery: Randomized Controlled Trial

Aim of the work :

Evaluation of the role of Remote Ischemic Preconditioning (RIP) on liver function in patients undergoing on-pump cardiac surgery.

Being tested
remote ischemic preconditioning, Sham remote ischemic preconditioning
Medical subject headings
Reperfusion Injury

What participants receive

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

  • remote ischemic preconditioningProcedure or surgery

    3 cycles of 5-minutes inflation of a blood pressure cuff to 200mmHg (or at least to a pressure 50mm Hg higher than the systolic arterial pressure) to one upper arm, followed by5-minutes reperfusion with the cuff deflated

  • Sham remote ischemic preconditioningProcedure or surgery

    3cycles of upper limb pseudo ischemia (low pressure, 5-minutes blood pressure cuff inflation to a pressure of 20 mm Hg and 5-minutes cuff deflation).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing remote ischemic preconditioning in people with Ischemia Reperfusion Injury, run by Assiut University at 1 site in Egypt.

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 4 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

liver function test (time frame: 3 postoperative days). 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 20 Apr 2021.
