Brief Summary

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

Postoperative delirium (POD) is one of the most frequent neurological complications in elderly patients and is closely associated with longer ICU stay and hospitalization, deterioration of long-term neurocognitive function, and increased mortality. The incidence of POD is significantly higher in elderly patients undergoing cardiac surgery than in other populations. Therefore, the prevention of POD is an important clinical problem to be solved urgently. In this study, we intend to observe the effect of RIPC on the prevention and treatment of POD in patients undergoing cardiac surgery through a prospective randomized controlled trial.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

RIPC

RIPC was induced with 3 cycles of 5 minutes of ischaemia and 5 minutes of reperfusion on the upper arm. By using blood pressure cuff inflation, patients in the RIPC group were exposed to a pressure 50 mmHg higher than the systolic radial artery pressure baseline.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

RIPC induced with 3 cycles of 5 minutes of ischaemia and 5 minutes of reperfusion

Intervention Type DEVICE

RIPC was induced with 3 cycles of 5 minutes of ischaemia and 5 minutes of reperfusion on the upper arm. By using blood pressure cuff inflation, patients in the RIPC group were exposed to a pressure 50 mmHg higher than the systolic radial artery pressure baseline.

Con

The control group had a deflated cuff placed on the upper arm for the same time.

Group Type NO_INTERVENTION
