NCT04086030 · Status: WITHDRAWN · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL

Last updated 2023-08-07

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the the ability of BFR to reduce muscle loss and improve strength after ACL reconstruction. It is hypothesized that BFR training will significantly reduce muscle loss and improve strength after ACL reconstruction. It is also hypothesized that BFR will result in improved patient reported outcomes and rates of return to sport.

Conditions

  • Anterior Cruciate Ligament Injuries
  • ACL
  • Physical Therapy

Interventions
