Autogenic Inhibition Versus Reciprocal Inhibition Muscle Energy Techniques in Iliotibial Band Syndrome
Comparison of effects of autogenic inhibition and reciprocal inhibition muscle energy techniques on iliotibial band syndrome
Mindfulness and ACL Surgery
Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) surgery patients experience physical trauma, both in the physical injury itself and following surgery, and face potential long-lasting adverse effects such as muscle weakness, diminished joint function, hip pain, and fear. Many of these patients report more significant anxiety and depression following surgery, which can further …
Immediate Versus Optional Delayed Surgical Repair for Treatment of Acute ACL Injuries
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 …
Augmentation of Partial Anterior Cruciate Ligament Tear: Early Results
Clinical evaluation for the patients with partial ACL tear who had ACL augmentation
Adjuncts for Adductor Block: Dexamethasone,Dexmedetomidine, or Combination to Reduce Pain
The aim of this multi-centered study is to evaluate the effects of two distinct Adductor Canal Block (ACB) adjuncts, dexamethasone and dexmedetomidine, and their combination, on postoperative analgesia in patients undergoing Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) Repair.
Michigan Split-belt Treadmill Training Program to Improve Acute Knee Biomechanics After ACL Reconstruction
The goal of this study is to determine short-term adaptations (aftereffects) in knee loading after a 20-minute split-belt treadmill training session in patients with ACL reconstruction. Our main question for this aim are: Are training-mediated aftereffects in the knee joint moment greater for tied-belt walking or split-belt walking? Are training-mediated …
Kinesiophobia After Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction.
Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture is a serious trauma with long-term consequences to the athlete. Psychological and physiological factors may negatively affect patient recovery and increase reinjury rate after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR), and development of kinesiophobia is also possible.
Biologic Therapy to Prevent Osteoarthritis After ACL Injury
Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries are extremely common. On average, 50% of individuals suffering an ACL injury will develop radiographic osteoarthritis (OA) 10 to 20 years after injury. Unfortunately, ACL reconstruction does not prevent risk of future OA. Interleukin-1 (IL-1) levels in the human knee joint increase transiently after an …
Efficacy of the NXSignal Device for the Treatment of Anterior Cruciate Ligament Injuries
Injury to the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is very common among sports professionals and the general population [. Unlike other joint injuries, it is reversible, but it can damage adjacent tissues, particularly the meniscus, and catalyze knee osteoarthritis. ACL injury produces instability, joint mechanical alteration, which can lead to degenerative …
External Focus of Attention Feedback to Reduce Risk of Non-contact ACL Injury
Knee injuries, especially those to the ACL, are common among physically active people. Preventing these injuries from happening is critical to limiting the long-term pain, disability, and arthritis associated with these injuries. Our study is going to examine new ways to provide feedback about the way people move to determine …
