چکیده

The concept of ischemic preconditioning refers to myocardial protection from ischemia-reperfusion insult by preceding brief ischemic episodes (1). An extensive effort has been made to understand the time frames and underlying mechanisms of ischemic preconditioning because of the potential applicability of this phenomenon in the clinical setting, especially because “preconditioning-mimetic” agents may enable the development of a chronic state of tolerance to ischemia.

Delayed preconditioning-mimetic action of nitroglycerin in patients undergoing coronary angioplasty.

BACKGROUND Experimental studies suggest that the cardioprotective effects of the late phase of ischemic preconditioning (PC) can be mimicked pharmacologically. However, to date, no drug has been tested with respect to its ability to elicit a late PC effect in humans. As a consequence, clinical exploitation of the powerful anti-stunning and anti-infarct actions of late PC has been elusive thus f...

Effective value of myocardial tissue oxygen pressure monitoring during cold ischaemia and reperfusion

Introduction: In former studies on ischaemic preconditioning, adenosine was found to trigger this cardioprotective process. After promising experiments in rabbit hearts and the first clinical use during emergency percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty in patients, we started to investigate the ability of adenosine to protect the myocardium during standard cross-clamping bypass surgery. ...

Is the development of myocardial tolerance to repeated ischemia in humans due to preconditioning or to collateral recruitment?

OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study in patients with quantitatively determined, poorly developed coronary collaterals was to assess the contribution of ischemic as well as adenosine-induced preconditioning and of collateral recruitment to the development of tolerance against repetitive myocardial ischemia. BACKGROUND The development of myocardial tolerance to repeated ischemia is nowadays in...

Effects of Nicorandil on the Clinical and Laboratory Outcomes of Unstable Angina Patients after Coronary Angioplasty

Introduction: Ischemic preconditioning mediated by potassium channels is a physiological protective mechanism, . It is hypothesized that Nicorandil, which is a potassium channel activator, could protect the heart via preconditioning. Materials and Methods:This clinical trial was conducted on 162 patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in Quem hospital, from Jan2013 to Jan 2...

Beneficial impact of preconditioning during PTCA on creatine kinase release.

BACKGROUND Previous studies in humans have indicated that there is less ischemic dysfunction during PTCA when ischemic preconditioning is elicited. However, the clinical relevance of these observations remains unclear. The present study design tests the hypothesis that PTCA performed to elicit the preconditioning response would result in less myocardial necrosis as assessed by postprocedure cre...
