Redwood City, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06535373Recruiting
Blood flow restriction training for hand grip strength
This study tests if using a blood flow restriction band on your arm during exercise can improve grip strength more than exercise alone. It is for healthy adults aged 18 to 35 who want to see if this safe, supervised training can boost their hand and arm strength.
Pomona, CaliforniaAges 18–35 - NCT06815367Recruiting
Compression vs Blood Flow Restriction for Muscle Recovery
This study compares two methods to help muscles recover after exercise: pneumatic compression (like a gentle massage sleeve) versus blood flow restriction (using a cuff). It aims to find which works better for healthy, active young adults.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18–30 - NCT07601906Recruiting
Blood Flow Exercise Therapy After Knee Replacement Surgery
This study tests whether special exercises that temporarily reduce blood flow to your leg can help you recover better after knee replacement surgery. It focuses on reducing pain and improving your ability to bend and straighten your knee.
Lahore, Punjab ProvinceAges 50–65 - NCT04113759Recruiting
Blood-flow restriction therapy after hip arthroscopy
This study looks at whether limiting blood flow to the thigh after hip arthroscopy (a hip surgery to repair damage) can improve recovery. You may be able to join if you’re a young adult scheduled for first-time hip arthroscopy for certain hip problems.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18–40 - NCT03255408RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Sleep study testing breathing and blood flow in healthy adults
This study looks at how your brain blood flow and breathing change during sleep under normal oxygen and reduced oxygen. It will only include healthy adults so researchers can learn what “intermittent hypoxia” does to the body in people without medical problems.
Calgary, AlbertaAges 18–45 - NCT03552562Recruiting
Eye blood-flow study in adults with type 2 diabetes
This study measures blood flow and oxygen use in the retina (the light-sensing layer at the back of your eye) in adults with type 2 diabetes and in healthy adults. It may help researchers better understand how diabetes affects the eye.
ViennaAges 18–99 - NCT06502587Recruiting
Blood flow restriction with low-intensity exercises for knee osteoarthritis
This study tests if using a special cuff to slightly reduce blood flow while doing gentle exercises can help reduce knee pain and improve function in people with knee osteoarthritis. It may offer a way to get stronger without heavy weights.
Lahore, Punjab ProvinceAges 40–65 - NCT07155967Enrolling by invitation
Blood flow restriction training for leg strength in older women
This trial tests whether a type of strength training that partly uses blood flow restriction can help older women build leg strength on one side, which may also benefit the other leg. It's for women who are generally healthy and have not had recent leg injuries or surgeries.
Presidente Prudente, São PauloAges 60 years+ - NCT05433103Recruiting
Blood flow restriction training for veterans with multiple sclerosis
This trial tests whether a special exercise method that briefly limits blood flow to the legs can improve strength and walking ability in people with multiple sclerosis (MS). If you have walking limitations, it may help you build fitness with less heavy resistance training—but you must be able to safely use a pressure cuff during testing.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 18–75 - NCT07576101Recruiting
Blood Flow Restriction Training for Lower Back Pain
This study tests whether a special exercise technique that carefully reduces blood flow to your legs while exercising can help reduce chronic lower back pain. The goal is to see if this method combined with training can strengthen your muscles and relieve pain more effectively.
IslamabadAges 18–45 - NCT04104126Recruiting
Blood flow restriction therapy for an Achilles injury
This trial looks at whether “blood flow restriction” during exercise can improve healing for people with an Achilles injury. You may be asked to also do standard physical therapy, but the study focuses on the added blood-flow-restriction approach.
New York, New YorkAges 18–65 - NCT07128862Recruiting
Strength training with or without blood flow restriction in athletes
This trial compares heavy weightlifting with and without blood flow restriction (using special bands) to see which works better for building strength in active athletes. If you are a sprinter or football player, you may be able to join.
Lahore, Punjab ProvinceAges 18–35 - NCT03096366Recruiting
Blood flow restriction rehab after ACL knee surgery
This trial studies whether a special exercise method that limits blood flow to the thigh (called blood flow restriction training) can improve quadriceps strength and function during recovery after arthroscopic ACL surgery. If you qualify, you would join a structured physical therapy program and follow the study’s rehab plan.
Houston, TexasAges 14–55 - NCT06490692Recruiting
Blood flow restriction training for tennis elbow

BeirutAges 18–28 - NCT06496035Recruiting
Blood flow training for leg fracture recovery
This study tests whether a special exercise method called blood flow restriction training helps people heal faster after a broken shinbone (tibia). It might improve strength and recovery during physical therapy.
Denver, ColoradoAges 18–100 - NCT06508801Recruiting
Blood flow restriction to improve balance in Parkinson's
This study tests whether gently restricting blood flow to your legs during exercise can help improve balance for people with Parkinson's disease. You will do simple leg exercises while wearing a special cuff, which may strengthen muscles and improve steadiness.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for blood flow?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 191 recruiting blood flow studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a blood flow trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a blood flow trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
