Protocol summary

Study aim
Determining and comparing the mean total antioxidant capacity (TAC) in patients in the two groups of remote ischemia induction (RIPC) and the control group
Design
A controlled clinical trial, with parallel groups, double-blinded, randomized, on 50 patients. Excel software rand function was used for randomization.
Settings and conduct
The project is carried out in the heart center of Tehran. The study is a clinical trial with two groups of remote ischemia preconditioning (RIPC) and control. Clinical and laboratory outcomes are performed by physicians and nurse assessors who are blind to the type of intervention. The patient is also unaware of the type of intervention.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: Candidate for coronary artery bypass grafting with cardiopulmonary bypass Normal upper limb examinations Not having surgical operations in the past three months Not having acute medical conditions during the last three months Exclusion criteria: Known inflammatory disorders Diabetes Liver disease Kidney disease Receiving vitamins C and/or E and/or other antioxidants
Intervention groups
- Intervention group under RIPC: ischemia by inflating the blood pressure cuff for 5 minutes and 5 minutes of reperfusion by deflating the cuff (4 times). - Control: No intervention will be performed.
Main outcome variables
Total antioxidant capacity, glutathione peroxidase activity

Sample size
Target sample size: 50
More than 1 sample in each individual
Number of samples in each individual: 3
1) The first venous blood sample will be drawn before the blood pressure cuff is closed in order to perform the desired intervention in relation to RIPC and in the control group will be performed at the corresponding time. 2) The second venous blood sample will be drawn after the CPB is completed. 3) The third venous blood sample will be taken 24 hours after ICU admission.
Randomization (investigator's opinion)
Randomized
Randomization description
The studied patients will be divided into two groups of intervention under RIPC and control. We use a simple randomization method for allocating patients into two groups. Each randomization unit is an individual that is assigned with a random number between zero and one using Excel software. Patients with a number greater than or equal to 0.5 are in the RIPC intervention group and the group with a number of less than 0.5 is in the control group. The anesthesiologist and the anesthesia nurse are aware of the group the patient is in and perform the intervention in the RIPC and control groups. The surgeon, the nurse recording the outcomes, and the laboratory expert who performs the laboratory tests have no knowledge of the study groups.
Blinding (investigator's opinion)
Double blinded
Blinding description
The anesthesiologist and the anesthesia nurse are aware of the group the patient is in and perform the intervention in the RIPC and control groups. In the next stages, all interventions are similar in both groups, and the surgeon and the nurse recording the outcomes are not aware of the study group. Then, the samples drawn by the anesthesia team are coded confidentially. Therefore, the laboratory expert who performs the laboratory tests have no knowledge of the study groups.
