The effect of Remote Ischemic Preconditioning (RIPC) on myocardial injury and inflammation in patients with severe aortic valve stenosis undergoing Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVΙ)

Background: Remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) is being evaluated as a strategy to reduce cardiac injury and inflammation in patients undergoing diverse cardiac invasive and surgical procedures. However, it is unclear whether RIPC has protective effects in patients undergoing the transfemoral- t...
