Remote ischaemic pre- and delayed postconditioning – similar degree of cardioprotection but distinct mechanisms
Myocardial ischaemia–reperfusion injury can be significantly reduced by an episode(s) of ischaemia–reperfusion applied prior to or during myocardial ischaemia (MI) to peripheral tissue located at a distance from the heart; this phenomenon is called remote ischaemic conditioning (RIc).
