Summary

The study investigates the incidence of remote ischemic conditioning in mild cognitive impairment and dementia patients

Detailed description

The investigators will study the potential neuroprotection of ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) of a peripheral organ or tissue against cerebral I/R injury in people with mild cognitive impairment as well as early and middle stage dementia. This crossover study will be held with individuals suffering from peripheral arteriopathy that can cause intermittent claudication after structured exercise, thus inducing extensive transient leg's ischemia.
