Filter by:This retrospective, prospective observational study aims to evaluate the epidemiology and rate of anterior cruciate ligament re- rupture after surgery in patients treated from January 2020 to December 2030 by recording both clinically and radiographically ligament reconstruction. The primary outcome is the rate of rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament as measured by the Lachmann test in which a positive value for re-rupture is an anterior translation of the tibia greater than 10mm relative to the femur Secondary Objectives: Verify predisposing factors to anterior cruciate ligament injuries (so anatomical factors such as tibial slope, trochlear groove), demographic factors (age, sex, weight, sports played), and the rate of return to sports, quality of life via questionnaires, and arthrosis at the operated knee
The purpose of this randomized controlled trial is to assess a new analgesia regimen that includes the addition of genicular never blocks to our current standard regimen of peripheral nerve blocks, which includes an adductor canal block (ACB) and interspace between the popliteal artery and capsule of the posterior knee block (IPACK). The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Does addition of genicular nerve blocks to standard peripheral block regimen significantly reduce the mean opioid consumption by 33% in the first 24 hours? 2. Does genicular nerve blocks reduce NRS pain scores? 3. Does genicular nerve blocks facilitate earlier discharge? 4. Does genicular nerve blocks last longer than 24 hours? 5. Does genicular nerve blocks improve pain management? Eligible patients are those undergoing an anterior cruciate ligament repair at the Hospital for Special Surgery and participants will be randomized to receive the intervention (genicular nerve block) or the standard of care.
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 compound these patients' adverse outcomes. This study is a single-blind, randomized controlled trial design to evaluate the effects of a remotely-delivered 8-week mindfulness intervention on patient-reported outcomes (PROs) following ACL reconstruction surgery.
The Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) is a major stabiliser of the knee. ACL rupture is being increasingly identified in children and skeletally immature patients. The current advice in younger patients is usually to undergo ACL reconstruction. The choice of an ideal graft in children is difficult This study will use a technique involves the use of hamstring tendons from a living donor, where the adult (usually a parent) agrees to donate their hamstring tendons, which are dissected out of them and implanted into the child
The majority of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries occur during non-contact mechanisms.This suggests that an individual's movement technique is a significant factor in the cause of the injury. Hence, ACL injuries are increasingly being framed as an error in motor planning and execution. Rehab following an ACL reconstruction (ACLR) commonly follows a pathway of: regaining ROM, strength development, power development, running, return to training and then return to competition. However, several studies utilising functional brain MRI and electroencephalogram have demonstrated dysfunction within the somatosensory and visual systems in the ACLR population even after the completion of rehabilitation. This has been suggested to indicate that the ACLR population becomes reliant on their visual system during motor planning and execution, potentially increasing the risk of reinjury.
The main objective of this study is to compare, with a minimum follow-up of 5 years, the prevalence of femoro-tibial osteoarthritis after an isolated ACL ligamentoplasty or after an ACL ligamentoplasty combining ACL and ALL.
The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is thought to have two main roles within the body: (1) providing a physical restraint to excessive rotation and forwards translation within the knee and (2) providing sensory information to the sensorimotor cortex (contributes to motor planning and motor task execution). Therefore, an ACL injury is thought to be not just a physical injury but also one which affects an individual's ability to plan and execute motor tasks. It has been suggested in previous research that following an ACL injury and even post-ACL reconstruction, individuals may become reliant on the visual-motor system when planning and executing movements. Therefore, this study aims to compare an ACLR population against healthy controls to see if it is possible to identify those who may be visually-motor reliant by accessing movement control in the absence of vision
Removal of meniscal tissue is described to result in poor knee function and a significant risk for future development of osteoarthritis. Different implants have been suggested to substitute a removed meniscus. Meniscal allograft transplantation is not widely available due to costs and availability. The semitendinosus tendon is a known graft with biological properties with potential to remodel and revascularize in an intraarticular environment such as anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. The objective for this study was to investigate whether the semitendinosus tendon graft could function as a meniscal transplant.
Purpose: The purpose of this article is to examine the clinical application of PRP and PRP+hyaluronic acid in disorders in the knee. Methods: The study was conducted on 150 adult patients with age over 20 years old affected by unilateral ACL complete tear and receiving ACL reconstruction. We divided the patients in three groups, and we treated the group A with perioperative injection of HHA, group B with perioperative HHA+PRP, group C with perioperative normal saline. Follow-up: Every 1,3,and 12months, we recheck physical exmianation at OPD and recheck MRI at postoperative 3 months.
The main objective is to compare the effectiveness of two readaptation programs post anterior cruciate ligament surgery. Laval University Rouge et or program is to be compared with the intervention guide from the CHU. Amateur athletes are recruited 3 months post ACL surgery. The level of confidence, symptoms, functional recovery level and muscle strength are assessed and compared between the two groups at 3, 4, 5, 6 and 9-month post surgery.
