The creation of national databases (registries) makes it possible to maximally cover a certain patient population by identifying its characteristic risk predictors. As literature data show, existing registries differ …
Remote ischemic conditioning (RIC) is the process of repeated ischemia and reperfusion in the peripheral vessels, which is proved in reducing IRI in vital organs.
