Safety of strength training with blood flow restriction in patients with hemophilic arthropathy; a randomized pilot study
Strength training with blood flow restriction is safe and does not cause joint or muscle bleeding in hemophilia patients in this group. Low-load and flow-restriction exercises can improve the intensity of joint pain and periarticular muscle strength in patients with bilateral hemophilic knee and ankle arthropathy.
