Sponsor

University of Colorado, Denver

Enrollment

120 participants

Start Date

Apr 29, 2022

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Summary

The investigators plan to investigate the efficacy of blood flow restriction (BFR) therapy in post operative rehabilitation following hip arthroscopy. BFR has shown to be great at helping the recovery process. SAGA is a well-known smart training technology company, and the investigators aim to partner with SAGA to use the BFR cuffs as the intervention method. The BFR cuff will be added to the current SOC for hip scope PT for the intervention group.

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This study is comparing two rehabilitation programs after hip arthroscopy surgery — a standard physical therapy program versus one that includes blood flow restriction (BFR) training using a smartphone app. BFR training uses a special cuff to improve muscle strength at lower exercise intensities. You may be eligible if: - You are 18–60 years old - You are having hip arthroscopy for labral tears, femoroacetabular impingement, loose bodies, ligamentum teres tears, or related hip conditions - You have access to a smartphone to use the study app You may NOT be eligible if: - You are having bilateral hip surgeries within 12 weeks of each other - You are having a concurrent peri-acetabular osteotomy or soft tissue repairs (hamstring/glute) - You have clinically diagnosed hip dysplasia - You have deep vein thrombosis (DVT), pulmonary embolism, or a clotting disorder - You have had a stroke - You have hemophilia or take blood thinners - You are pregnant or within 6 months postpartum - You have untreated high or low blood pressure - You have rhabdomyolysis or recent traumatic injury Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.
