Answers are grounded in this paper and cite their sources.
D uring the past 3 decades, several experimental stud- ies have shown that ischemic conditioning reduces myocardial damage by modifying ischemia-reperfusion injury. A recent study in the Lancet indicates that remote ischemic preconditioning translates into clinical benefit in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass surgery. The implications of the study extend to patients undergoing elective and acute coronary angioplasty and beyond.
