BACKGROUND Acute kidney injury following administration of iodinated contrast (CI-AKI) has been referred to as contrast induced nephropathy (CIN). Ischemic preconditioning (IPC), transient brief episodes of ischemia before a subsequent prolonged ischemia/reperfusion injury, has been shown to reduce the extent of organ damage. Several studies have demonstrated the tissue-protective effects of remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) in various target organs, including the kidneys. The aim of this
