预先给予机体一个轻、中度的短暂刺激，间隔一段时间后，机体适应能力增强，能耐受更加严重持久的刺激。

The phenomenon that sublethal cerebral ischemic preconditioning could prevent neurons from the following severe ischemic insult, now known as cerebral ischemic tolerance, provides us an opportunity to study the neuroprotective mechanism of ischemic preconditioning.

亚致死性脑缺血预处理（ischemic preconditioning，IP）可使神经元免受随后的严重缺血性损伤，该现象称之为脑缺血耐受（ischemic tolerance，IT）。
