Experimental
non-ischemic preconditioning
ischemic preconditioning
The participants will have the cuff attached to the arm, however not be inflated for the 4 cycles of remote ischemic conditioning: 1 cycle is 5 minutes of inflation followed by 5 minutes of deflation. The ischemic reperfusion injury was induced by cuff inflation by the Single Cuff Tourniquet 8000 to 200 mmHg in the arm for 20 minutes followed by reperfusion for 15 minutes.
The blood supply to the distal part of the arm will be occluded by inflation of a single cuff to 200mmHg, by the help of the Single Cuff Tourniquet 8000, for 5 minutes separated from 5 minutes of deflation, a cycle that happens 4 times in total. The ischemic reperfusion injury was induced by cuff inflation to 200 mmHg in the arm for 20 minutes followed by reperfusion for 15 minutes.
