Summary

The present study investigates the effects of blood flow restriction training on muscular recovery during out-patient rehabilitation after elective total knee arthroplasty

Conditions

  • Osteoarthritis (OA) of the Knee
  • Muscle Atrophy

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Sham-BFR

The exercise protocol for the operated leg (with sham pressure of 20mmHg) consisted of four sets with 75 repetitions (reps) in total (1. Set: 30 reps, 2.-4. Set: 15 reps) with 30% of the individual one-repetition maximum for each exercise and were performed five times per week during the three-week outpatient rehabilitation.

PROCEDURE

Blood Flow Restriction Training

The exercise protocol for the operated leg (with a BFR pressure of 60% of the LOP) consisted of four sets with 75 repetitions (reps) in total (1. Set: 30 reps, 2.-4. Set: 15 reps) with 30% of the individual one-repetition maximum for each exercise and were performed five times per week during the three-week outpatient rehabilitation.
