    This study introduces a scoring system for evaluating knee injuries, categorizing function from Good-Excellent to Poor. This method offers objective assessment and improved communication for knee ligament injury care.

    Area of Science:

    • Orthopedics
    • Sports Medicine
    • Rehabilitation

    Background:

    • Knee ligament injuries present challenges in objective assessment and standardized treatment.
    • Existing methods may lack consistency in evaluating patient outcomes and treatment efficacy.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To introduce and validate a novel scoring system for the comprehensive evaluation of knee ligament injuries.
    • To establish an objective measure for assessing patient response to treatment and recovery.

    Main Methods:

    • Analysis of data from 280 patients using a non-acute scoring system.
    • Categorization of knee function into Good-Excellent, Fair (+), Fair (-), and Poor based on defined point ranges.
    • Correlation of the scoring system with patient self-evaluations and physician clinical assessments.

    Main Results:

    • The scoring system effectively categorizes knee function, correlating well with patient and physician assessments.
    • The method provides consistency in workup, diagnosis, treatment, and study of knee injuries.
    • It offers an objective measure for patient recovery and assessment of therapeutic modalities.

    Conclusions:

    • The developed scoring system enhances the organization and objectivity in managing knee ligament injuries.
    • It facilitates improved communication among healthcare providers and between physicians and patients.
    • The system supports efficient long-term follow-up and contributes to advancing patient care and research in knee injuries.
