Postoperative rehabilitation exercises with addition of blood flow restriction therapy following olecranon fracture: A case report
The addition of BFRT to exercise was effective in improving pain, elbow, and wrist AROM, handgrip strength, function, and disability in a patient with surgically treated olecranon fracture. Despite the inherent limitations of our design, we believe these preliminary findings are compelling to warrant future investigations.
