Efficacy and mechanism of nicorandil in perioperative protection of skeletal muscle from ischaemia and reperfusion injury in a porcine model
Background: Prolonged ischaemia time during autogenous free muscle transfer, can lead to ischaemia reperfusion (I/R) injury and local necrosis of the muscle. It has been demonstrated that the phenomenon of ischaemic preconditioning (IPC) confers biphasic infarct protection in a porcine skeletal musc...
