NCT06501222

Brief Summary

The incidence of Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is showing an upward trend, but the therapeutic effect of treatment is limited. Remote ischemic conditioning (RIC) has the potential to safeguard remote organs via the repeated application of brief ischemic stimuli. the aim of our study is to investigate whether RIC can protect the renal function in patients with CKD.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • change in eGFR

    eGFR is calculated using the CKD-EPI formula, eGFR in mL/min/1.73m²

    3 months and 12 months

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Changes in renal tissue oxygen saturation (SrtO2) compared to baseline.

    3 months and 12 months

  • Changes in blood pressure

    3 months and 12 months

Other Outcomes (3)

  • 24-hour urine protein quantitation compared to baseline.

    3 months and 12 months

  • change in Pulse Wave Velocity compared to baseline.

    3 months

  • change in Flow-mediated vasodilation compared to baseline.

    3 months

Study Arms (2)

RIC group

EXPERIMENTAL

The RIC protocol involves five cycles of alternating inflation of both upper arms, utilizing an automated device to alternately inflate to 200 mmHg for 5 minutes and deflate for 5 minutes.

Device: Remote ischemic conditioning

sham-RIC group

SHAM COMPARATOR

The sham-RIC protocol involves five cycles of alternating inflation of both upper arms, utilizing an automated device to alternately inflate to 60 mmHg for 5 minutes and deflate for 5 minutes.

Device: Remote ischemic conditioning

Interventions

RIC is a non-invasive therapy that performed by an electric auto-control device with cuff placed on arm. RIC procedure during which bilateral arm cuffs are inflated to a pressure of 200mmHg for five cycles of 5 min followed by 5 min of relaxation of the cuffs.
