About
Fear of re-injury after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction surgery (ACLR) affects individuals' return to sports and physical activity negatively. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of proprioception and muscle strength on kinesiophobia in patients who have undergone anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction surgery.
Full description
Factors such as graft type, patient age, activity level and athletic experience, as well as psychological factors such as psychological readiness for return to sports, fear of re-injury, and motivation during the rehabilitation process, affect returning to sports after ACLR. Fear is a psychological reaction that occurs after injury and is clearly seen during the period when athletes continue to actively participate in sports. Individuals' confidence in their knees and pain after surgery affect their fear of movement.
While kinesiophobia provides benefits in protecting injured body parts in the acute phase of pain, it can lead to inactivity, emotional stress and risk of re-injury in the long term. Kinesiophobia changes the biomechanics of movements and pain perception. Insufficient muscle strength and instability in the knee negatively affect confidence in the knee. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of proprioception and muscle strength on kinesiophobia in patients who have undergone anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction surgery.
