Implication

Randomized controlled trial shows improved muscle strength and balance in patients post-ACL reconstruction, suggesting effective rehabilitation methods.

Key Points

To investigate the impact of visual feedback balance training on muscle strength and balance in patients after ACL reconstruction.
Conducted a randomized controlled trial with a prospective, single-blind design.
42 patients were initially assigned to intervention (n=17) and control groups (n=16), with assessments preoperatively and post-intervention.
Both groups underwent a 10-week training program starting at week 5 post-surgery, with three sessions weekly.
The intervention group had significant improvements in concentric quadriceps and hamstring strength compared to the control group.
Significant enhancements in dynamic balance and coordination were observed in the intervention group.
The intervention group displayed greater improvements in functional outcome scores (VAS, IKDC, Lysholm) than the control group.
