[New face of modified reperfusion: postconditioning].
In this review authors describe the mechanisms and possibilities of attenuation of ischaemia reperfusion injury in the myocardium. They describe modified reperfusion (postconditioning) and discuss its use in basic and clinical research. The proposed effects of modified reperfusion on the reperfusion injury were also depicted and compared to the mechanisms and action of ischemic preconditioning.
