First seen Mar 20, 2026 · Last updated May 11, 2026 · Updated 4 times

Summary

This study tests whether using a blood flow restriction (BFR) cuff during physical therapy helps people recover better after ankle ligament reconstruction surgery. About 105 adults will either get standard physical therapy or therapy with the BFR cuff for at least 6 weeks. Researchers will measure muscle loss, ankle function, pain, and heart health to see if BFR therapy improves recovery.
