Summary

Kinesthesia is impaired after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction but adapts within 12 months. An angular velocity of 0.2°/s is appropriate for assessing this sensory function in ACL patients.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedics
  • Neuroscience
  • Sports Medicine

Background:

  • Kinesthesia assessment lacks consensus post-anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction.
  • Understanding kinesthetic adaptation is crucial for rehabilitation protocols.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To prospectively evaluate kinesthetic adaptation after ACL reconstruction.
  • To determine the optimal angular velocity for kinesthesia assessment in ACL-reconstructed patients.

Main Methods:

  • Prospective study involving 31 patients undergoing ACL reconstruction.
  • Threshold to Detect Passive Motion (TTDPM) test administered preoperatively and at 3, 6, and 12 months post-surgery.
  • TTDPM measured at 15° and 45° knee flexion using 0.1°/s and 0.2°/s angular velocities.

Main Results:

  • Preoperatively, ACL-reconstructed knees showed significantly impaired TTDPM at 0.2°/s compared to healthy knees.
  • No significant differences in TTDPM were observed at the 3-month follow-up.
  • Kinesthesia, sensory function, and biomechanical stability adapted within 12 months post-ACL reconstruction.

Conclusions:

  • An angular velocity of 0.2°/s is suitable for assessing TTDPM in ACL-reconstructed patients.
  • Kinesthetic adaptation occurs by 12 months after ACL reconstruction.
  • Rehabilitation effectively restores sensory function and biomechanical stability.
