“…As for the duration of blood flow occlusion, 23 studies used a 5-min period, whereas six studies reported periods between 4 and 5 min (1,23,27,44,50,56). Peak brachial diameter after cuff deflation (i.e., during hyperemia) was determined via continuous ultrasound scan in 20 studies (1,3,(12)(13)(14)20,27,36,40,49,50,59,60) and single time point(s) ultrasound scan in seven studies (23,29,32,(44)(45)(46)56), and one study did not report such information (37). Time to peak brachial diameter after cuff deflation was reported in one study (3).…”
