简要总结
This study examines if remote ischemic preconditioning in patients undergoing minor acute abdominal surgery (laparoscopic cholecystitis due to acute cholecystitis) is associated with a modulation of endothelial dysfunction. half of the patients will receive remote ischemic preconditioning prior to surgery, the other half will serve as controls.
详细描述
Remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) consists of cycles of forearm or leg ischemia and reperfusion by the inflation of a blood-pressure cuff over the systemic blood pressure for brief periods. The procedure is simple, safe and with no clear side effects. In clinical studies covering acute cardiology RIPC has effectively reduced myocardial injury, postoperative cardiovascular complications and cardiac mortality. Recently, the effect of RIPC on attenuating ischemia-reperfusion injury has been investigated in non-cardiac surgery as well. The organ specific ischemia-reperfusion injury, systemic oxidative stress and inflammatory response were attenuated due to the intervention but a complete understanding of the underlying protective mechanisms of RIPC is however still lacking.
Experimental and clinical studies have implicated that the stimulus of RIPC is transmitted from the preconditioned tissue to other tissues and organs by humoral, neural and systemic anti-inflammatory mediators. The humoral and neural pathway are thought to be dependent on endogen substances such as adenosine, bradykinin, nitrogen oxide (NO) and calcitonin-gene-related-peptide (CGRP).

研究组 & 干预措施
Remote Ischemic Preconditioning
Remote ischemic preconditioning is carried out before the induction of general anesthesia. All four cycles will be completed before general anesthesia. The blood pressure cuff is placed on the upper limb. The cuff is inflated to 200 mmHg (if systolic blood pressures exceeds 185 mmHg, the cuff will be inflated to at least 15 mmHg above the systolic blood pressure) resulting in a total occlusion of the blood flow to the limb. After 5 minutes of ischemia, the cuff is deflated, and the limb is reperfused for 5 minutes. This cycle is repeated 4 times. Pulse oximetry is performed on the RIPC limb to make sure that the blood flow is completely interrupted during ischemia
