The present study investigates the effects of blood flow restriction training on muscular recovery during out-patient rehabilitation after elective total knee arthroplasty
The present study evaluated the impact of blood flow restriction training in the context of three-week outpatient rehabilitation following TKA, in accordance with the guidelines of the German Pension Insurance System. The in-rehabilitation and post-rehabilitation muscle status, strength, knee functionality, impairments in daily life and subjective pain perception were measured.
