Summary
The podcast discusses a recent pilot study on the effects of passive blood flow restriction (BFR) exercise on muscle atrophy following total knee replacement surgery. The conversation highlights the significant muscle mass loss that occurs post-surgery and the potential of BFR to mitigate this loss. The study design, methodology, and key findings are explored, emphasizing the importance of early intervention and the feasibility of implementing BFR in clinical settings. The hosts discuss the implications of the findings for rehabilitation practices and future research directions.

In episode 65 Johnny makes his triumphant return after defeating Montezuma’s revenge to help the guys breakdown a couple recent publications on BFR and rehab after ACLr. Zac takes the lead on the first of the papers that had a bit of a clickbait title per the fellas assessment. The paper titled, “‘Real world’ clinical implementation of blood flow restriction therapy does not increase quadriceps strength after quadriceps tendon autograft ACL reconstruction” has a number of demographic problems the fellas discuss, and ultimately evaluated one of the least relevant outcome measures by their estimation. Kyle finishes up the breakdown with some alternate and far more accurate title suggestions for the paper.
The second paper they discuss was a recent review paper on ACL and BFR. Ben takes the lead breaking down this paper where the fellas have a tough time sorting why some studies were excluded and why at least one was included. Long story short the evidence on BFR use in ACLr rehab is still very limited and a review focusing on most all aspects of that process should be read with a healthy level of skepticism.
