Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Acute kidney injury is associated with cardiopulmonary bypass during heart surgery and its pathogenesis is similar to that of ischemia-reperfusion injury. Remote ischemic preconditioning attenuates myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury in patients undergoing coronary bypass surgery. The investigators hypothesize that such preconditioning reduces the incidence of acute kidney injury associated with cardiopulmonary bypass.
