Strength training with blood flow restriction after hip replacement

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

Participants who had total hip arthroplasty within the past four weeks will join outpatient exercise therapy at the University Hospital Bonn. They will receive either true blood flow restriction (BFR) combined with strength training or a sham-BFR protocol alongside routine exercise therapy units (ETM01) following local RTS hip/knee therapy standards. The interventions are delivered within the outpatient rehabilitation framework to determine effects on muscular fitness and markers of muscle regeneration. Outcomes will compare functional muscle performance and recovery between the BFR and sham groups over the rehabilitation period.
