Abstract:
Objective To explore the effectiveness of the tele-intelligent rehabilitation system based on a wearable device in early rehabilitation of patients after arthroscopic anterior cruciate ligament re-construction(ACLR).Methods A total of 70 patients(48 male,22 female,18~29 years old)undergo-ing arthroscopic ACLR were randomly divided into a tele-rehabilitation group(n=36)and a convention-al rehabilitation group(n=34).The tele-rehabilitation group underwent rehabilitation training using the tele-intelligent rehabilitation system based on a wearable device,while the conventional rehabilitation group conducted a home-based self-rehabilitation exercise according to the conventional education con-tent after surgery.Before surgery and 12 weeks postoperatively,both groups were assessed using the International Knee Documentation Committee(IKDC),lower extremity functional scale(LEFS),knee active range of motion(AROM),numeric pain rating scale(NPRS)and 12-item short-form health survey(SF-12).Results Before surgery,there was no significant difference between the two groups in the IKDC score,LEFS,knee mobility,walking NPRS,as well as physical component summary(PCS)and mental component summary(MCS)scores in the SF-12 scale(P>0.05).However,12 weeks postoperatively,the IKDC score,LEFS score,and knee mobility in the tele-rehabilitation group were 73.4±9.8,70.2±5.1,and 127.9°±5.8°,respectively,significantly better than those of the conventional rehabilitation group(64.3±13.7,63.6±9.6,and 122.7°±10.6°,respectively)(P<0.05 for all).Moreover,the walking NPRS scores in the tele-rehabilitation group were significantly low-er than the conventional rehabilitation group(P=0.01),while the PCS and the MCS scores of the for-mer were significantly superior to the latter(P<0.01).In addition,the minimum clinically important difference compliance rate of IKDC and LEFS score and the patient acceptable symptom state compli-ance rate of NPRS score in tele-rehabilitation group were significantly better than the latter group(P<0.05).Conclusion The remote intelligent rehabilitation system based on a wearable device is superior to the conventional rehabilitation in promoting early knee function recovery,joint mobility,relieving pain,and bettering the life quality of patients after ACLR.
