Remote ischemic preconditioning in patients with intermittent claudication

Abstract: OBJECTIVE:Remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) is a phenomenon in which a short period of sub-lethal ischemia in one organ protects against subsequent bouts of ischemia in another organ. We hypothesized that RIPC in patients with intermittent claudication would increase muscle tissue resistance to ischemia, thereby resulting in an increased ability to walk.METHODS:In a claudication clinic, 52 ambulatory patients who presented with complaints of intermittent claudication in the lower limbs associated with an … Show more

“…One recent study documented 'increased initial claudication distance' (the walking distance at which patients first experience symptoms) after conditioning ischemia was applied to the arm (Saes et al 2013). In contrast, this remote conditioning protocol did not increase total walking distance versus an untreated control group of patients also with intermittent claudication (Saes et al 2013). Of course, it is possible that such studies are confounded by "self-conditioning"; i.e., patients in both groups may have experienced an episode of intermittent claudication before their treadmill test.…”

“…This phenomenon was named remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) [1113]. Saes et al [14] showed that short-term RIPC application increased the initial claudication distance in PAD patients with IC; nevertheless, RIPC did not affect the total walking distance of the study patients.…”
