Official title Effect of Visual-Guided Balance Training on Knee Motor Function and Biomechanical Characteristics After ACL Reconstruction
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07306221
What this study is testing
- What it's testing
- This study aims to investigate the improvement effect of visual-guided balance training on the knee joint function and gait performance of patients after ACLR, and to clarify the advantages of this training program compared to conventional rehabilitation training; at the same time, by including healthy individuals as the control group, it quantifies the differences in knee joint function and gait performance between patients after ACLR and healthy individuals, to verify whether visual-guided balance training can more effectively narrow the functional gap between patients after ACLR and healthy individuals, and promote the recovery of patients' knee joint function and gait closer to the healthy level. Ultimately, it provides scientific theoretical basis and practical guidance for the optimization of the rehabilitation plan after ACLR, and helps patients achieve comprehensive and high-quality recovery.
