Assessment

Primary outcomes

The primary outcome is quadriceps muscle strength. All patients included in the study are assessed 5 times: tests are performed 6 weeks and 1 week before surgery, 4 days, 1 month and 3 months after surgery.

Key secondary outcomes

The secondary outcomes are inflammatory response immediately after surgery, knee swelling, knee range of motion, performance test, knee injury and osteoarthritis outcome score (KOOS), and Japanese knee osteoarthritis measure (JKOM).

Interventions/Control_1

The exercise contents of the intervention group are a squat, a forward lunge, bilateral leg extension with blood flow restriction and cycle ergometer training. These exercises are performed once or twice a week for 4 weeks before surgery. After surgery, standard exercise is performed once or twice a week for 12 weeks.

Interventions/Control_2

The exercise contents of the control group are a squat, a forward lunge, bilateral leg extension without blood flow restriction and cycle ergometer training. These exercises are performed once or twice a week for 4 weeks before surgery. After surgery, standard exercise is performed once or twice a week for 12 weeks.

Results

The increase in quadriceps strength pre- and post-intervention showed no significant difference between the two groups (BFR group: median 12.1%; LST group: median 6.2%). The reduction in quadriceps strength pre- and post-surgery also showed no significant difference between the two groups (BFR group: mean -72.4%; LST group: mean -75.3%). For safety assessments (D-dimer and hs-CRP levels), there were no significant main effects of time, group, or interaction between the two groups.

Participant flow

In this study, 379 patients were considered for inclusion, but 357 were excluded for the following reasons: 208 did not meet the criteria, 6 canceled their surgeries, 45 declined to participate due to concerns about the new coronavirus infection, and 98 were excluded for other reasons. Ultimately, 22 patients were included in the study and were randomly assigned to either the Low-Load Resistance Training with Blood Flow Restriction (BFR group) or the Low-Intensity Resistance Training with Slow Movement and Tonic Force Generation (LST group). Each group included 11 participants, and all participants successfully completed the study protocol.
