Remote Ischemic Conditioning for Preventing Contrast-Induced Acute Kidney Injury in Patients Undergoing Percutaneous Coronary Interventions/Coronary Angiography: A Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials

摘要

Background: It is uncertain whether remote ischemic conditioning (RIC) has a protective effect on contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI)/coronary artery angiography (CAG). We performed a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) to assess the effect of RIC on CI-AKI in such patients.
