Objective: Ischemia reperfusion injury greatly damages liver function and deteriorates the prognosis of patients undergoing partial hepatectomy. This study is to compare the protective efficiency of direct and remote ischemic preconditioning (DIPC and RIPC) on ischemia reperfusion injury of the liver in patients undergoing partial hepatectomy. Methods: = 30) groups. Baseline and surgery characteristics were collected, and ischemic preconditioning methods were carried out. Intraoperative hemodynamics, liver function and liver reserve capacity, oxidative stress, and inflammatory responses were measured, and the incidence of postoperative adverse reactions was calculated finally. Results: were decreased 24 hours after surgery in the DIPC and RIPC groups compared with that in the control group. DIPC and RIPC also decreased hospital stays and the incidence of nausea, vomiting, and hypertension. Conclusion: DIPC and RIPC both alleviated ischemia reperfusion injury of the liver and reduced perioperative complications with similar protective efficiency in patients undergoing partial hepatectomy.
