Protective ischemia in cardiology. Myocardial conditioning forms

Abstract

The review describes the phenomena of ischemic myocardial preconditioning, conditioning, and postconditioning, as well as the relevant molecular mechanisms, in patients with coronary heart disease. The role of conditioning (protective ischemia) in clinical trials and its potential for further research are demonstrated.
