Study Arms (2)
RIC group
EXPERIMENTALRIC is a non-invasive therapy that is performed by automated pneumatic cuffs placed on bilateral arms. The RIC protocol includes five cycles of 5-min inflation to 200mmHg and 5-min deflation.
Sham RIC group
SHAM COMPARATORThe Sham-RIC protocol include five cycles of 5-min inflation to 60 mmHg and 5-min deflation by placing automated pneumatic cuffs on bilateral arms.
