Conditions

Acute Kidney Injury

Brief summary

The purpose of the present study is to determine if remote ischemic preconditioning reduces incidence of acute kidney injury in patients with reduced kidney function undergoing Percutaneous Coronary Intervention.

Detailed description

Acute kidney injury negatively impacts on prognosis after PCI, and only hydratation have shown to reduce this complication. Remote ischemic preconditioning has been demonstrated to reduce periprocedural MI, while impact on aki remains to be assessed

Interventions

PROCEDURERemote ischemic preconditioning

four times 5-minute inflations of a blood pressure cuff to 200 mmHg around the upper non dominant arm (or if systolic pressure is more than 150 mmHg, inflation will reach 50 mmHg up per than baseline), followed by 5-minute intervals of reperfusion.

In the control group sham preconditioning will be performed with inflation of 10 mmHg more than baseline.
