Abstract:
Objective To explore the current status of home-based rehabilitation of patients who accepted reconstruction of anterior cruciate ligament in the early stage,so as to analyze its correlation with their joint function recovery in early.Methods Fifty-four consecutive patients underwent arthroscopic reconstruction of anterior cruciate ligament were recruited.A self-designed questionnaire was used to collect demographic data,the implementation of rehabilitation,concerns about the exercises,and function status of the knee were observed in outpatient after their surgeries two weeks.Results Only 25 patients (46.3%) had a satisfied function recovery of the knee. Control rate of muscle activity was 33.3%,and control rate of range of movement exercises was 29.6%. Varying degrees of concern to rehabilitation was founded in patients,and the most concern was afraid of pain (55.6%),improper practice due to lacking of guiding (51.9%),hang on due to boring during rehabilitation process (37.0%). Early functional recovery of patients was influenced by the control rate of rehabilitation.Conclusions Current status of early functional recovery of patients who accepted reconstruction of anterior crnciate ligament in the early stage is far from satisfied.More attention should be paid to home-based rehabilitation.It should be improved by strengthening the guidance of rehabilitation in-hospital and follow-up in outpatient.
