The Neuroprotective Effect of Remote Ischemic Preconditioning on Ischemic Cerebral Vascular Disease
Cerebrovascular Disease
About this trial
This is an interventional prevention trial for Cerebrovascular Disease focused on measuring ischemic cerebral vascular disease, stroke secondary prevention, remote ischemic preconditioning
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion criteria:
- Patients with stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA) within 180 days and the neurologic deficits were well matched to the territory of the stenosed artery, with intracranial arterial stenosis of at least 50% by angiography, at least 70% by ultrasound, or at least 70% by computed tomographic angiography (CTA) or magnetic resonance angiography (MRA)
- Age between 18 to 80 years old

Exclusion criteria:
- Within 72 hrs of intra-artery or intravenous thrombolysis
- Intracranial hemorrhage or large area of cerebral infarction (more than 1/3 middle cerebral artery perfusion territory)
- Any soft tissue, orthopedic, or vascular injury, wounds or fractures in extremities which may pose a contraindication for application of the preconditioning cuffs

RIPC+stroke secondary prevension
stroke secondary prevention
Procedure/Surgery: Remote Ischemic Preconditioning (RIPC) The detail of RIPC included five cycles of bilateral upper limbs 5/5 min. of ischemia and reperfusion alternation. Limb ischemia was induced by inflating tourniquets to 200 mmHg. This process was placed on both arms every day. Procedure:stroke secondary prevention(Such as Antiplatelet therapy, Cholesterol-lowering therapymaintain blood pressure and blood sugar normal)
