Remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) of the myocardium by limb ischemia/reperfusion may mitigate cardiac damage, but its interaction with the anesthetic regimen is unknown.
The investigators will test if RIPC will be associated with differential effects depending on background anesthesia. Specifically, the investigators hypothesized that RIPC during sevoflurane anesthesia attenuates myocardial injury in patients undergoing congenital cardiac defects repair surgery and that effects may be different during propofol anesthesia.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Group A | Active Comparator | Sevoflurane plus remote ischemic preconditioning anesthesia will be induced and maintain with sevoflurane in addition to remote ischemic preconditioning which will be done after induction and before cardiopulmonary bypass by inflating the cuff of blood pressure above 200mmhg in the lower limb every 5 min for 3 cycles |
|
| Group B | Active Comparator | anesthesia will be induced and maintain with total intravenous anesthesia (propofol, midazolam plus fentanyl) during plus remote ischemic preconditioning in addition to remote ischemic preconditioning which will be done after induction and before cardiopulmonary bypass by inflating the cuff of blood pressure above 200mmhg in the lower limb every 5 min for 3 cycles |

| Troponin I levels | The investigators will obtain blood samples for troponin I level pre-Cardiopulmonary bypass, 6, 12 and 24 hours after the surgery. Troponin I levels, as a marker of myocardial ischemia, have been used in previous adult and pediatric studies on preconditioning. | within first 24 hours after cardiac surgery |

| Highest inotropic score during the first 24 hours after cardiac surgery | Inotrope score is a useful predictor of morbidity and mortality in children who undergo heart surgery. The inotropic score is calculated as follows: 1 point is assigned for each mcg/kg/min of dopamine and dobutamine, and 10 points is assigned for each 0.1 mcg/kg/min of epinephrine, norepinephrine, and phenylephrine. Inotrope score is a useful predictor of morbidity and mortality in children who undergo heart surgery |
