Brief Summary

In recent years, a large number of studies confirmed the protective effect of ischemic preconditioning on myocardium against ischemia/reperfusion injury, but the clinical data of the effectiveness of ischemic preconditioning in heart transplantation is still missing. Inspired by the promising data of ischemic preconditioning from the previous reports, the investigators firstly introduce a novel method of cross ischemic preconditioning technique to prevent ischemia/reperfusion injury to heart transplant recipients. This study will evaluate whether this cross-preconditioning technique would attenuate ischemia/ reperfusion injury to the heart transplant recipients, reduce Intensive Care Unit(ICU) and total hospitalization stays and the incidence of cardiovascular adverse events and improve the long-term survival outcomes.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • serum troponin T/ creatine kinase-MB level

    troponin T/ creatine kinase-MB at definitive time points ( baseline, crossclamping, reperfusion, 6,24,48 and 72 hours postoperatively)

    3days

  • Number of Participants with major adverse cardiacand cerebrovascular events (MACCE) in one year postoperatively

    MACCE include death from cardiovascular causes, nonfatal myocardial infarction, coronary revascularization, or strok

    1year

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • inotrope score

    3days

  • serum creatinine level

    3days

  • ICU time

    up to 2 weeks

  • 6-minute walk test

    2weeks

Study Arms (2)

Cross Ischemic Preconditioning Group

EXPERIMENTAL

the ascending aorta of the CIP group will be crossclamped to cease the blood supply for 2 minutes, separated by a 3-minute rest interval, and repeated successively on 2 occasions

Procedure: cross-preconditioning

Control Group

NO INTERVENTION

The recipients in the control group are to undergo routine cardiopulmonary bypass procedure of heart transplantation without Ischemic Preconditioning manoeuvre.

Interventions

After the establishment of the cardiopulmonary bypass, the ascending aorta of the CICP group will be crossclamped 2 minutes, separated by a 3-minute rest interval, and repeated successively on 2 occasions.
