About

Purpose of the study is to investigate the effects of the criterion rehabilitation protocol versus accelerated rehabilitation protocol on the biomechanical determinants of the quality of performance and risk of reinjury.

Enrollment

105 patients

Sex

Male

Ages

18 to 35 years old

Volunteers

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion criteria

  • Amateur male athletes who underwent ACLR surgery with an autologous hamstring (HS) graft.
  • Ranging in age from 18 to 35 years.
  • Underwent a pre-operative rehabilitation program with minimal knee effusion, full Extension, good patellofemoral mobility
  • Ability to actively control the quadriceps.

Exclusion criteria

  • ACLR with any graft other than a hamstring graft
  • ACL revision surgery
  • associated medial or lateral ligamentous injuries
  • previous meniscectomy or meniscal repair
  • simultaneous meniscectomy or meniscus repair with the ACLR
  • cartilage damage.

105 participants in 2 patient groups

criterion-based rehabilitation protocol
Experimental group
Description:
It's a three phases rehabilitation protocol with a goal-based progression which include a three criterion based postoperative phases: (1) impairment phase, (2) sport-specific training phase and (3) return to play phase. Patients can start with the next phase only if specific goals of the previous phase are achieved
Treatment:
Other: rehabilitation protocol
accelerated rehabilitation protocol
Active Comparator group
Description:
It's a four phases rehabilitation protocol mainly based on the remodeling process of the graft., emphasizing full passive knee extension, immediate weight bearing as tolerated and functional exercises
Treatment:
Other: rehabilitation protocol
