No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The investigators believe that blood flow-restricted training can result in increased caste hypertrophy and strength without stressing the tendon in lateral elbow tendinopathy, and that changes in local metabolic activities can be effective in the process of tendon healing. The researchers' aim in the study is to investigate the effectiveness of blood flow restriction training in lateral elbow tendinopathy for 8 weeks, in addition to the 2 days a week multi-modal physiotherapy program, which will be applied by limiting blood flow by 40-50% occlusion recommended for the upper extremity using the patient's systolic pressure to the severity of 20-30% of 1 maximum repetition, 75 repetitions including 30-15-15-15 repetitions and 30 seconds rest period between sets, remaining attached to the recommended 10-15 minutes period for the top extremity.

Conditions

  • Lateral Epicondylitis
  • Tennis Elbow
  • Tendonitis Elbow

Interventions

OTHER

Blood flow restriction

The BFR training group will be given detailed information about the technique and discussed possible side effects.The American Association of Sports Physicians (ACSM) recommends that at least 65% of 1 maximum repetition, similar to high-intensity exercise, 8-12 repetitions of resistant weight lifting strength training, can be used with low loads such as 20% to 30% of the maximum 1 repetition in therapy to caste hypertrophy and strength.

OTHER

Multimodal rehabilitation

Patients with LDT will be informed that the condition will be gradually resolved with adequate rest and time. Exercise Training will consist of 3 phases.The goal is to protect the injured tissue from stress during the first phase of rehabilitation during the protective phase but not to restrict its function. In this phase, the use of counterforce breys, cold application, cyriax physiotherapy, Mill's manipulation, elbow mobilization and stretching to the wrist extensors will be applied. The program will be created taking into account the principle of proximal stability for distal mobility during the reinforcement phase. The rotator manchet will be added to the program. It will be active first in the exercise and then progresses resistantly according to the condition of the patient. After distal strengthening, the dress will be transferred to stabilization exercises where flexion and extension reveal simultaneous contraction.
