Why the study?

Does KAATSU training alter haemostasis and fibrinolytic responses in healthy men?

Population

13 healthy men across two protocols.

Comparison

KAATSU training. Protocol 1: KAATSU of both… vs Protocol 2: leg press exercises without KAATSU…

Design

Other

Follow-up

acute (immediately after exercise)

Discussion

Implication

May suggest safe fibrinolytic effects with KAATSU in healthy men; hypothesis-generating and should not change practice.

Structured PICO

Does KAATSU training alter haemostasis and fibrinolytic responses in healthy men?

Population

13 healthy men across two protocols (Protocol 1: n=6, mean age 48 ± 5 yr; Protocol 2: n=7, mean age 30 ± 4 yr).

Intervention

KAATSU training (reduction of muscle blood flow by a specially designed belt). Protocol 1: KAATSU (160 mmHg) of both thighs for 15 min + low-intensity aerobic exercises for ~10 min in hypobaric chamber. Protocol 2: leg press exercises (30% 1 RM) with KAATSU of both thighs 24 h after bed rest.

Comparator

Protocol 2: leg press exercises without KAATSU. Protocol 1: rest.

Outcome

Haemostasis and fibrinolytic responses (tPA activity/antigen, PAI-1 activity/antigen, FDP, D-dimer, PT, platelet counts) measured acutely.surrogate

KAATSU training induces potentially favorable changes in fibrinolytic factors without increasing fibrin formation in healthy subjects.
