Brief Summary: Ischaemic preconditioning IP describes the phenomenon that brief periods of ischaemia render the myocardial muscle more resistant to a subsequent more prolonged period of ischaemia and reperfusion Animal studies have provided evidence that adenosine receptor stimulation is an important mediator of IP As caffeine is an effective adenosine receptor antagonist already at concentrations reached after regular coffee consumption we aimed to assess whether caffeine impairs IP in humans in vivo We used a novel and well-validated model to study IP in humans 99m-Tc-annexin A5 scintigraphy in forearm skeletal muscle

24 healthy volunteers were randomly assigned to either caffeine 4 mgkgiv in 10 minutes or saline before a protocol for IP
