Post-conditioning reduces infarct size in an open-chest porcine acute ischemia-reperfusion model

Background: Timely reperfusion is a prerequisite for myocardial salvage; however, re‐oxygenation of the ischemic myocardium initiates reperfusion injury. Post‐conditioning diminishes the detrimental aftermath of an acute myocardial infarction through alleviation of reperfusion injury. Ischemic post‐...
