    Contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CIAKI) is a significant complication following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).

  • 2

    Remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) may reduce the incidence of CIAKI in coronary heart disease (CHD) patients undergoing PCI.

  • 3

    In a study of 484 patients, RIPC resulted in a lower CIAKI incidence of 6.2% compared to 12.0% in the control group.

  • 4

    Multivariate analysis confirmed RIPC as an independent protective factor against CIAKI with an odds ratio of 0.338.

  • 5

    No significant difference in major adverse cardiac events (MACE) was observed between the RIPC and control groups during follow-up.
