What is Blood Flow Restriction in Spinal Injuries about?

This dissertation examined the feasibility and safety of blood flow restriction (BFR) exercise for individuals with incomplete spinal cord injuries. Nine subjects completed knee extensions with and without BFR. Results showed BFR exercise was safely performed without signs of deep vein thrombosis or autonomic dysreflexia. BFR increased venous pooling and hyperemia while decreasing tissue oxygenation. Data suggest BFR exercise can be safely performed in this population without increased pain or difficulty.
