Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: BFR
Patient will use the following rehabilitation protocol while incorporating blood flow restriction therapy:
|
Use of a tourniquet set to 50% of limb occlusion pressure while performing post operative physical therapy
|
No Intervention: Control (no BFR)
patients will use following rehabilitation protocol without the use of blood flow restriction therapy:
