Blood-flow restriction training after ACL surgery
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This study looks at whether a special exercise method called blood-flow restriction (BFR) training changes blood and metabolism-related responses after ACL reconstruction surgery. It may help people understand who could safely benefit from BFR during recovery.

This trial tests if adding blood flow restriction (BFR) training to standard rehab can help people who had ACL surgery over 6 months ago. It may help you regain strength and get back to sports faster.
This trial looks at how well your ACL graft (the repaired tissue) heals after ACL reconstruction when you use a specific rehab method called blood-flow restriction training. It may help your care team understand whether this rehab approach leads to better healing and function.
This study tests whether using a special blood flow restriction cuff after ACL surgery helps you recover faster and stronger. It is for people having ACL reconstruction using their own quadriceps tendon for the first time.
This trial tests whether hyperbaric oxygen therapy (breathing oxygen in a pressurized chamber) can help you recover faster after ACL knee surgery. If you're having ACL reconstruction, this treatment might reduce healing time.
This trial tests whether a special type of exercise that uses a cuff (blood flow restriction training, or BFRT) can help teens recover after ACL reconstruction. It’s designed to see if adding BFRT to standard rehab improves strength and return to sport.
This study tests whether adding blood flow restriction training to standard rehab improves recovery after ACL reconstruction. It may help you regain strength and function faster after surgery.
