APLICACIÓN DE LA RECUPERACIÓN DE LA FUNCIÓN DEL PACIENTE TRAS LA RECONSTRUCCIÓN DEL LIGAMENTO CRUZADO ANTERIOR

ABSTRACT

Introduction:

The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is one of the important structures of knee joint stability.

Objective:

To investigate the application of medical training therapy (MTT) in the functional recovery of patients after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.

Methods:

Eighty patients who were treated in a secondary hospital were selected as the study subjects and were divided into a control group and an observation group according to a random number meter, with 40 cases per group. We compared Lysholm knee function scores, the range of motion (ROM), daily life capability (ADL scale), pain degree (VAS rating), knee stretch muscle score, and standing balance ability score of the two groups 3 months after intervention.

Results:

After intervention, the first time getting out of bed, the doctor-patient satisfaction score, and the average length of stay were better in the observation group than in the control group (P<0.05). The excellent rate of knee function in the observation group was 92.50%, which was significantly higher than 70.00% in the control group (P<0.05).

Conclusions:

MTT therapy can significantly improve knee the function and pain level of patients after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction, shorten the length of hospital stay, promote rehabilitation, improve the therapeutic effect, and improve the quality of life of patients. Level of evidence II; Therapeutic studies - investigation of treatment results.
