Summary

The aim of this study was to compare the effect of blood flow restriction (BFR) training and traditional rehabilitation training on grip strength, pinch strength (tip pinch strength, key pinch strength and tripod pinch strength), range of motion (ROM) of wrist, patient-rated wrist evaluation (PRWE) score, muscle stiffness and radiographic outcomes in distal radius fracture (DRF) patients during a post-treatment rehabilitation program.

Conditions

  • Distal Radius Fracture

Interventions

OTHER

Traditional rehabilitation training

The non-BFR group undertook traditional rehabilitation training only. Patients participated in 2 training sessions per week with at least 48 hours rest in between for continuous 6 weeks. Clinical assessment of grip strength, pinch strength (tip pinch strength, key pinch strength and tripod pinch strength), ROM of wrist, PRWE score, muscle stiffness and radiographic outcomes, was conducted at the 6th and 12th week from the date of initial DRF.

OTHER

Blood flow restriction combined with traditional rehabilitation training

BFR group completed the traditional rehabilitation training with a medical grade tourniquet applied on the upper arm. Patients participated in 2 training sessions per week with at least 48 hours rest in between for continuous 6 weeks. Clinical assessment of grip strength, pinch strength (tip pinch strength, key pinch strength and tripod pinch strength), ROM of wrist, PRWE score, muscle stiffness and radiographic outcomes, was conducted at the 6th and 12th week from the date of initial DRF.
