title: [Cardioprotective effects of ischemic post-conditioning of the myocardium].
abstract: Phenomenon of ischemic post-conditioning of the myocardium (attenuation of myocardial damage during reperfusion resulting from interruption of early reperfusion period by repetitive short episodes of ischemia) was discovered in 2003. This paper contains presentation of protective effects of ischemic post-conditioning during ischemia-reperfusion of the myocardium, data on antiarrhythmic effects of post-conditioning in relation to persistent tachyarrhythmias during reperfusion, analysis of possible mechanisms of infarct-limiting effect of post-conditioning, and perspectives of its clinical application.
