Blood Flow Restriction Therapy to Optimize Muscle Size and Strength in Recovery From Lower Limb Fractures

This study will assess the feasibility and effectiveness of blood flow restriction therapy in patients with tibia fractures (or lower leg bone). Personalized blood flow restriction therapy has shown to help people regain muscle size and strength after surgical treatment by allowing them to be able to start physiotherapy on their injured leg sooner. This study aims to evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of personalized blood flow restriction therapy to improve thigh muscle size and strength in patients with lower limb tibia fractures which require a period of non-weightbearing.
