NCT01158716

Brief Summary

Elective percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is associated with troponin release in approximately one third of cases. Myocardial necrosis may result from downstream embolization of atheromatous material, coronary side-branch occlusion and may involve ischemia/reperfusion injury. The investigators hypothesized that a single remote ischemic preconditioning cycle would reduce peri-procedural troponin release.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Delta Cardiac Troponin I (ΔcTnI)

    ΔcTnI is defined as cardiac troponin I (cTnI) at 24 hours post-PCI minus cTnI before coronary angiography

    24 hours post PCI

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Chest Pain During Coronary Balloon Occlusion

    During coronary balloon occlusion

  • ECG Evidence of Ischemia During Coronary Balloon Occlusion

    During coronary balloon occlusion

Study Arms (2)

Remote Ischemic Preconditioning

ACTIVE COMPARATOR
Other: Remote Ischemic Preconditioning

Control

NO INTERVENTION

Interventions

Patients are subjected to a 5-minute ischemia of the non-dominant arm with the use of a blood pressure cuff (inflated at 200mm Hg)

Remote Ischemic Preconditioning

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 85 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Patients with a significant stenosis as documented in coronary angiography eligible for PCI
  • Patients ≥ 18 of age and able to give informed consent

You may not qualify if:

  • Severe comorbidity (estimated life expectancy \<6 months)
  • Use of nicorandil or glibenclamide
  • Elevated baseline cTnI before PCI
  • Renal disease as documented by serum creatinine before PCI
  • LVEF\<35%
