The Effect of Blood Flow Restriction Training on Muscle Thickness and Symptoms in Patients With Rotator Cuff Tendinopathy
In Brief
An observational study evaluating Exercise training for Rotator Cuff Tendinosis. Completed, enrolled 32 participants across 2 sites.
Detailed Summary
This study was planned to investigate the effect of blood flow restriction exercise training on shoulder muscle strength and muscle thickness, and to determine the change in pain and symptoms in patients with rotator cuff tendinopathy. Patients in the study group will perform the rehabilitation exercises with a pneumatic cuff and blood flow restricted. The patients in the control group will perform the same exercise program without restricting blood flow.
