Blood flow restriction rehab after shoulder surgery
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study tests a method called 'blood flow restriction' (using a cuff to lightly reduce blood flow) during rehabilitation after shoulder stabilization surgery (Latarjet procedure). It aims to help you recover strength faster and with less pain.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You must be between 18 and 35 years old.

- You exercise at least once a week (any kind of physical activity counts).
- You cannot be pregnant, breastfeeding, or have blood clotting problems, heart disease, or active cancer treatment.
- You must not have had any major complications during the first 6 weeks after surgery.

This trial compares two types of surgery that rebuild the front (anterior) shoulder bone when there has been significant bone loss. It may help find which operation works better to keep your shoulder from dislocating again.
This study tests a new rehab program after a shoulder stabilization surgery called Latarjet. It may help you recover better if you have had a dislocated shoulder and need this surgery.
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.
This study tests whether a special blood flow restriction device used during physical therapy helps people recover better after ankle ligament repair. You would do physical therapy as usual, but with a cuff on your upper leg that gently limits blood flow during exercises, which may help strengthen muscles more quickly.
This study looks at the long-term results of a specific shoulder surgery (Latarjet-like procedure) to treat chronic shoulder dislocations. It aims to understand how well the shoulder stays stable years after the surgery.
This study looks at how well shoulder muscle strength can predict whether you will be able to return to sports after a specific shoulder stabilization surgery called the Latarjet procedure. You may be eligible if you had a sports-related shoulder dislocation and are planning to have this surgery.
