Yang, MingmingLiang, BinWang, Dan2024-09-202024-09-202024-09-20https://wyoscholar.uwyo.edu/handle/internal/9708https://doi.org/10.15786/wyoscholar/9918Distal radius fractures, particularly Colles' type, are prevalent among individuals over 50 years old. The common treatment involves plaster cast application, but studies revealed the decreased grip and pinch strength, wrist range of motion (ROM) loss, muscle resilience, and persistent hand disability post-fracture. Low-load resistance training is a traditional post-cast removal rehabilitation method, but it may limit muscle hypertrophy due to fewer recruited type II fibers. Blood flow restriction (BFR) training, involving partial arterial inflow restriction during low-intensity strength training, emerges as a promising alternative, mimicking high-intensity effects. BFR is effective in promoting muscle recovery in various musculoskeletal injuries.enAttribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 Internationalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/blood flow restriction trainingfracturesfracture rehabilitationPresentation
