Brief Title: Effect of Remote Ischemic Preconditioning on Lung Injury After Pulmonary Resection
Official Title: Effect of Remote Ischemic Preconditioning on Lung Injury in Patients Undergoing Pulmonary Resection:a Randomised Controlled Trial
Study ID: NCT01307085
Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to determine whether ischemic preconditioning reduces lung injury in patients undergoing pulmonary resection.
Detailed Description: Remote ischemic preconditioning is an intervention in which brief ischemia of one tissue or organ protects remote organs from a sustained episode of ischemia. It is known that one-lung ventilation in patients undergoing pulmonary resection, which may cause acute lung injury. The investigators did a single-blinded randomised controlled study to establish whether remote ischemic preconditioning reduces lung injury in these patients.
