Abstract：Objective To systematically review the effect of high blood flow restriction training(BFRT)on patients after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction(ACLR).
Methods Relevant literature was searched in PubMed,Web of Science,Embase,Cochrane Library,CNKI,CBM,Wan-fang data,and VIP databases using subject term search methods from the inception to May 1st,2024.The meth-odological quality of the included literatures was assessed using Physiotherapy Evidence Database(PEDro)scale,and relevant data were extracted for systematic review.
Results A total of seven articles were finally included,involving 183 subjects from six countries.The intervention sites were mainly hospital rehabilitation departments and rehabilitation centers.The publication dates ranged from 2016 to 2023.In BFRT group,lower limbs were compressed during conventional rehabilitation training,with in-termittent of 0.5 to 2 minutes or without deflation.BFRT would increase muscle strength,muscle hypertrophy,and improved knee joint function.Total duration of intervention and training intensity affected the improvement.
Conclusion High BFRT can improve the condition of the muscles around the knee joint and promote functional recovery after ACLR.To ensure the safety and effectiveness of the training,low-intensity strength training should be em-ployed,with 15 to 30 repetitions per set,four to five sets per session,two to three sessions per week,and a total training duration of at least three weeks.
