Study Arms (2)

Remote ischemic postconditioning group

EXPERIMENTAL

Recipients receive remote ischemic postconditioning after declamping of renal artery during kidney transplantation

Device: remote ischemic postconditioning

Control group

NO INTERVENTION

Patients who have a deflated cuff placed on the upper limb free of arteriovenous fistula during the surgery

Interventions

Remote ischemic postconditioning consists of three 5-min cycles of upper limb ischemia, which was induced by an automated cuff-inflator placed on the upper limb free of arteriovenous fistula and inflated to 250 mm Hg, with an intervening 5 min of reperfusion during which the cuff was deflated.
