What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting This study
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study tests whether heavy or light leg exercises, done with a tight band that reduces blood flow, help people recover better after ACL reconstruction. Sixty adults who had ACL surgery will be assigned to one of two exercise programs. Researchers will measure leg strength, knee function, and pain over time to see which approach works best.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Blood flow restriction (BFR) cuff combined with isokinetic exercise
What this could lead to
If successful, this could point toward a more effective rehab protocol for people recovering from ACL surgery, potentially improving strength and knee function with less strain.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial (60 participants) comparing two exercise types, so results may not apply to everyone. The blood flow restriction technique carries risks like bruising or discomfort, and the study hasn't started recruiting yet.

Study facts

What this study's own registry entry says, in plain language.

Phase

Not a phased trial

Phase numbers describe drug development. The registry uses this when they do not apply, as it does for trials of devices, procedures or behaviour changes, and for observational studies.

Participants

About 60 people

The number the study aims to enrol. It can still change while the study runs.

Expected to start

Feb 2026

An estimate. Start dates often move.

Expected to finish

Jun 2026

An estimate. End dates often move.

Lead sponsor

Other sponsor

The registry's catch-all category, for sponsors it does not file as a company, a government agency, or a research network.

Show the full entry requirements

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: For ACLR group: •Isolated unilateral ACL reconstruction 8-16 weeks post-surgery with medical clearance for moderate to high resistance training. For control group(healthy population): * Healthy adults with no musculoskeletal pathology. Exclusion Criteria: * History of cardiovascular or metabolic diseases * Deep vein thrombosis * Coagulopathy * Hypertension * Skin lesions or infections at the site of BFR cuff administration * Neuromuscular disorders * Non-clearance from the surgeon or physiotherapist or resistance training.
