Effects of Remote Ischemic Conditioning on Dynamic Cerebral Autoregulation, Blood Pressure and Heart Rate Variability in Patients With Cerebral Small Vessel Disease

Remote ischemic conditioning (RIC) is induced by 4 cycles of 5 min of healthy upper limb ischemia followed by 5 min reperfusion. Limb ischemia was induced by inflations of a blood pressure cuff to 200 mmHg. RIC will be conducted twice daily during the period of hospitalization.

Remote ischemic conditioning (RIC) is induced by 4 cycles of 5 min of healthy upper limb ischemia followed by 5 min reperfusion. Limb ischemia was induced by inflations of a blood pressure cuff to 60 mmHg. RIC will be conducted twice daily during the period of hospitalization.
