The purpose with this present study is to investigate the effect og a non-surgical regime in patients with an Anterior Cruciate ligament injury. The effect will be measured by patient reported outcome scores, level of function and how many of the patients are converting to operative treatment.
The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury is common in athletes aged 18 to 35. ACL reconstruction (ACLR) aims to restore knee stability in the process of returning to sports. Post-surgical rehabilitation focuses on optimizing biomechanical parameters, with neuromuscular and functional tests assessing muscle strength, proprioception, and dynamic stability. Isokinetic allows …
Clinical evaluation for the patients with partial ACL tear who had ACL augmentation
Currently, most patients with an anterior cruciate ligament injury undergo surgery. There is a general belief that surgical reconstruction is necessary to safely return to sports and to prevent early knee osteoarthritis or additional meniscus injuries. But there is insufficient scientific evidence to support this belief. Moreover, several studies show …
This prospective observational study evaluates the intraoperative energy expenditure of the surgeon during anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction procedures. Energy expenditure and physiological workload will be measured using a wearable Hexoskin shirt during surgery. The study will compare surgical procedures involving isolated anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction, anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction combined …
This study investigates the effect of different dressings on skin pH when applied to a simulated skin fold environment.
The project is a pragmatic registry-based RCT aiming to investigate ACL injury treatment. Study results will help fill knowledge gaps, facilitate shared decision making and strengthen patient treatment. Included patients will be randomized to (1) early ACL surgery followed by rehabilitation or (2) active rehabilitation with optional delayed surgery if …
Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tears are associated with concomitant lesions of the anterolateral ligament (ALL), which increase rotatory instability of the knee. If untreated, ALL insufficiency can compromise the results of ACL reconstruction, with higher risk of iterative ACL tear or additional meniscal lesion. Several surgical techniques have been described …
The goal of this clinical trial is to examine the effects of 12 weeks of post-operative use of a novel wearable electrical stimulation knee sleeve device (KneeStim) on post-operative biomechanical function (gait). Participants will be United States Military Academy cadets aged 17-27 years. The main questions it aims to answer …
Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) Degeneratio Mucosa is a condition resulting from mucoid degeneration of ACL. Exact etiology is unknown, however ACL Degeneratio Mucosa impairs everyday functioning. In the literature there were some reports of treatment by ACL excision and subsequent reconstruction, however such treatment brings risk of deteriorated function. In …
