Clinical-randomized Trial of the Effect of Rehabilitation Therapy Using Strength and Blood Flow Restriction Training on Muscular Fitness and Regeneration After Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction

"The exercise protocol provides for units of approx. 25 minutes of BFR training five times a week as part of medical training therapy. Based on the initial strength measurements prior to rehabilitation, the training phase of the intervention group starts with 30% of the 1RM (calculated from the force-velocity profile) and 70% LOP in the operated leg and 75% of the 1RM (calculated from the force-velocity profile) in the unoperated leg. The patients are randomized into 2 groups: 1) intervention group, which receives a daily intervention with an occlusion pressure and the 2) control group, which receives a daily Sham-BFR intervention with an occlusion pressure of 20mmHg."
