Abstract:
Objective To explore the effect of cryotherapy and compression system in rehabilitation treatment for reconstruction of anterior cruciate ligament.Methods One hundred and twenty patients who had been treated with reconstruction of anterior cruciate ligament were randomly divided into treatment group (60 patients,treated with cryotherapy and compression system) and control group (60 patients,treated with traditional method).All patients was treated for 3 months and followed up for 6 months.The scores of visual analogue scales(VAS),degree of swelling,Lysholm and IKDC scores were observed and compared.Results The scores of VAS in treatment group postoperative 6,24 and 48 h were significantly lower than those in control group (P ＜ 0.01).The degree of swelling in two groups postoperative 6 h,12 h,24 h,48 h,1 week,2 weeks had significant difference(P ＜ 0.05).The degree of swelling in treatment group postoperative 4 weeks,3 months and 6 months was lower than that in control group,but there was no significant difference (P ＞0.05).The scores of Lysholm and IKDC in treatment group postoperative 4 weeks were (65.2 ± 12.3),(65.3 ± 14.3) scores,in control group were (60.2 ± 12.5),(59.4 ± 13.5) scores,there was significant difference (P ＜0.05).The scores of Lysholm and IKDC in two groups postoperative 3,6 months hod no significant difference (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion The cryotherapy and compression system in rehabilitation treatment for reconstruction of anterior cruciate ligament can improve the effect of early-term rehabilitation training,but has little impact on the long-term rehabilitation training.
