Effect of Blood Flow Restriction Technique on Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness

Not Applicable

Recruiting

• Conditions: Pain Intensity
• Interventions: Other: BFR technique

• Registration Number: NCT06389747
• Lead Sponsor: Istanbul University - Cerrahpasa (IUC)

Brief Summary

The aim of our study is to determine and evaluate the effects of blood flow restriction technique on pain, biomechanical properties and strength of the muscle in delayed onset muscle pain in healthy individuals. A Double Blind, Randomized Controlled, prospective study was planned.

Detailed Description

All participants will be taken into the DOMS creation protocol. Participants will then be divided into 80% intensity BFR and 20% intensity Blood Flow Restriction technique (BFR) groups and will be included in an exercise protocol accompanied by BFR application.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Visual analog scale	2 months	it will be used for assessment of pain intensity, It is scored between 0-10, and higher scores indicate that the situation is getting worse.
dynamometer	2 months	it will be used for assessment of myscle strength, lower scores indicate that the situation is getting worse.
myoton	2 months	it will be used for assessment of muscle tonus and biomechanic properties, scores are changin according to different parameters.
dolorimeter	2 months	it will be used for assessment of pain thresold pressure, lower scores indicate that the situation is getting worse.
