Effects of lower-limb intermittent pneumatic compression on sports recovery: A systematic review and meta-analysis

Article scientifique 2024 Anglais

Résumé

. A total of 17 studies (319 participants) were included. The studies' methodological quality was assessed using the PEDro scale, ranging from fair to good. Results indicate a trivial to small benefit towards lower-limb IPC in enhancing muscular function, as well as a trivial to moderate effect for pain and soreness measurements, and a highly variable effect on muscle damage markers. Moreover, protocols of about 20 to 30 minutes and pressures of about 80 mmHg appear to be the most used option to optimize recovery. In summary, lower-limb IPC might be a method with potential effects for recovery in sports, mainly reducing perceived soreness.
