- Abstract: Objective To evaluate the effect of extremity ischemia preconditioning on lung protection in patients undergoing pulmonary lobectomy,and to further explore its possible mecha-nisms.Methods Forty patients (male 26 and female 14,BMI 20-28 kg/m2,ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ,aged 45-64 years old)scheduled for elective pulmonary lobectomy via a thoracoscope,were randomly divided into two groups:extremity ischemic preconditioning group (group P)had the left leg roots tied with a tourniquet,lower extremity blood flow aerated blocked for 5 min,then deflated to restore blood flow for 5 min,the cycle was repeated three times;control group (group C)had the left lower extremity tied but not charged for 30 min.All the patients underwent intravenous-inhaled composite anesthesia. Arterial and venous blood samples were taken after admission to the operating room,at 6 h,12 h and 24 h after operation.The alveolar-arterial oxygen pressure difference (PA-aO2),respiratory index(RI) and oxygenation index (OI)were calculated.The level of TLR4 was measured.The pulmonary com-plications within 48 h after operation were recorded.The adverse reactions of the left lower extremity of the group P were recorded.Results Compared with the admission to the operating room,the ex-pression of TLR4 was significantly increased in the two groups at 6 h,12 h and 24 h after operation, but the expression of the group P was significantly lower than that of group C (P<0.05).Compared with the admission to the operating room,PA-aO2and RI were significantly increased,and OI was sig-nificantly decreased in the two groups at 6 h,12 h and 24 h after operation (P<0.05).Compared with group C,PA-aO2and RI were significantly decreased,and OI was significantly increased in group P (P<0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of pneumonia and ate-lectasis in the two groups after operation,and no respiratory failure was observed in both groups.The left lower extremity of the group P had no adverse reactions,such as rupture of skin,thromboembo-lism,and nerve injury.Conclusion Extremity ischemic preconditioning has protective effect on pul-monary function in the patients undergoing pulmonary lobectomy,which may be related to down-reg-ulation of TLR4 expression in monocytes of blood and inhibition of the systemic inflammatory re-sponse.
