A Pediatric Case with an Unstabilized Neck Treated with Skeletal Muscle Electrical Stimulation and KAATSU Training

SUMMARY: This case report concludes that a 15-week intervention of KAATSU training combined with belt electrode skeletal muscle electrical stimulation (B-SES) effectively improved neck stabilization and muscle tone in a severely challenged child with lissencephaly and flaccid quadriplegia, offering a promising rehabilitative path for patients unable to perform voluntary exercise.

Effect of Aerobic Training with Blood Flow Restricting on Static Balance, Lower Extremity Strength, and Thigh Hypertrophy in Females with Multiple Sclerosis

SUMMARY: This study concludes that an eight-week program of aerobic training combined with blood flow restriction (KAATSU) significantly improves static balance, lower extremity strength, and thigh muscle hypertrophy in women with Multiple Sclerosis, providing a more effective rehabilitative alternative to traditional aerobic training for reducing disability.

Effect of KAATSU Training on a Patient with Benign Fasciculation Syndrome

SUMMARY: This case report demonstrates that low-intensity KAATSU training significantly increases muscle mass, strength, and overall quality of life while reducing chronic pain in a patient with Benign Fasciculation Syndrome (BFS), concluding that it is a safe and effective rehabilitative tool for neurological disorders involving pain and muscular weakness.

KAATSU Resistance Training Decreased the Sinus Pause in a Patient Demonstrating Sick Sinus Syndrome - A Case Report

SUMMARY: This case report demonstrates that low-intensity KAATSU resistance training significantly reduced the frequency and duration of sinus pauses in an elderly patient with sick sinus syndrome, concluding that the method can improve cardiac function by modulating autonomic nerve activity and reducing vagal hypertonus.

KAATSU Training as a New Effective Exercise Therapy in a Case of Femoral Medial Condyle Osteonecrosis

SUMMARY: This study demonstrates that long-term, low-intensity KAATSU training is a highly safe and effective non-surgical rehabilitation method for idiopathic osteonecrosis of the femoral medial condyle, as evidenced by significant bone tissue remodeling and complete functional recovery in a 71-year-old patient.

KAATSU Training as a New Exercise Therapy for Femoral Head Avascular Necrosis - A Case Study

SUMMARY: This case study concludes that three months of low-intensity KAATSU training significantly improves muscle strength, bone mineral density, and functional mobility in a patient with advanced steroid-induced femoral head avascular necrosis, establishing it as a potent non-invasive rehabilitation therapy for conditions where heavy weight-bearing is contraindicated.

KAATSU Training in a Case of Patients with Periventricular Leukomalacia (PVL)

SUMMARY: This case report concludes that short-term KAATSU training is a safe and highly effective rehabilitation method for pediatric patients with periventricular leukomalacia (PVL), significantly improving gross motor function and reducing muscle spasticity even in patients who have plateaued with traditional therapy.

Three Cases of Disuse Syndrome Patients Who Improved by KAATSU Training

SUMMARY: This case report demonstrates that twice-weekly, low-intensity KAATSU training effectively reverses disuse syndrome in elderly patients by significantly increasing muscle mass, grip strength, and growth hormone levels, concluding that it is a superior rehabilitation tool for early-onset muscle strengthening and the prevention of sarcopenia.
