Cardiac surgery is associated with cardiac and cerebral injury because of ischemia/reperfusion in approximately one third of cases. Ischemic preconditioning (IPC), have been shown to reduce the extent of myocardial infarction (MI). As another ischemic conditioning, remote ischemic postconditioning, limits MI size in animal models. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the cardiac and cerebral protective effect of remote ischemic postconditioning in children undergoing cardiac surgery, as a single-center, randomized controlled trial.
