About
The study aimed to evaluate the combined effects of cyclosporine and remote ischemic preconditioning on MDA, calcium cytosol concentration, and mitochondrial edema in tetralogy Fallot patients undergoing corrective surgery.
Full description
Forty patients undergoing tetralogy Fallot corrective surgery were randomized to RIPC and cyclosporine (n=20) and control (n=20). Cyclosporin was administered 2 hour pre induction of anesthesia with the dose of 3 mg/kg body weight intravenously. RIPC was performed preoperatively after induction of anesthesia by inflating pressure cuff on the extremity 30 mmHg higher than systolic blood pressure of the patient for 5x5 minutes with 5 minutes reperfusion interval. Blood samples from coronary sinus and biopsies from the myocardial infundibulum were obtained three times at the condition of pre ischemic, ischemic, and reperfusion. MDA was measured from the blood samples, meanwhile calcium cytosol concentration and mitochondrial edema was measured from the biopsy samples.
