Study Summary
Patients that have cardiac surgery may suffer from unrecognized cerebral ischemia or loss of blood flow to the brain temporarily during surgery. This temporary loss of blood flow to the brain may result in a condition called delirium. Delirium is a type temporary confusion. There are some strategies that can help reduce cerebral ischemia during cardiac surgery which can help lead to a reduction in the incidence of delirium. The investigator believes that a strategy called remote ischemic preconditioning will help to reduce the incidence of delirium incidence after cardiac surgery. Remote ischemic preconditioning is a brief exposure to ischemia. This brief exposure to ischemia occurs in an area of the body that is not undergoing a procedure. This brief exposure to ischemia is not long enough to cause any damage to the body and it has been demonstrated to help protect against more severe ischemic injury that may occur later during surgery. In this study the investigator will use remote ischemic preconditioning to see if it can reduce the incidence delirium after cardiac surgery.
