Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Blood flow restriction
Resistance training protocol but with Blood flow restriction technique Standard BFR Application: a standard pressure (used for all patients) for e.g. 180 mmHg; a pressure relative to the patient's systolic blood pressure, for e.g. 1.2 - or 1.5-fold greater than systolic blood pressure.
Blood flow restriction
strengthening protocol but with Blood flow restriction technique
.Standard BFR Application: a standard pressure (used for all patients) for e.g. 180
mmHg; a pressure relative to the patient's systolic blood pressure, for e.g. 1.2 - or 1.5-fold greater than systolic blood pressure.40% cuff pressure as percentage of LOP.(4) And performing BFR-RE with low load exercises. So 30% of 1 RPM would be enough 4 times a week for 6 week
Conventional physical therapy
Resistance training to stimulate skeletal muscle hypertrophy and strength adaptations in Duration of 6 weeks
Conventional physical therapy
Resistance exercise 75 repetitions across four sets of exercises, with30 repetitions in the first set and 15 repetitions in each subsequent set. 4 times a week for 6
