Effect of Early Gait Training on Knee Cartilage Degeneration After Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction
Recruiting now · Not applicable
Conditions studied: Anterior Cruciate Ligament Injuries, Cartilage Degeneration
In brief
A randomized controlled clinical study was conducted to elucidate the relationship between the lower extremity biomechanics of patients undergoing early gait training after ACLR surgery.The relationship between the biochemical characteristics of cartilage and the biomechanical risk index were proposed to providing exercise guidance and training for ACLR people and it is suggested that it can prevent and reduce the risk of cartilage degeneration early after operation.
