Overview

Systematic review evaluates innovative rehabilitation strategies' impact on recovery and performance in athletes with knee injuries, suggesting improved outcomes.

Key Points

  • This review evaluates the effectiveness of emerging rehabilitation technologies for recovery from sports-related knee injuries.
  • Conducted systematic search of literature for randomized controlled trials published between 2021 and 2026.
  • Included 12 studies focusing on athletes with ACL injuries and other knee conditions.
  • Assessed methodological quality using the Cochrane Risk of Bias 2 tool.
  • Emerging rehabilitation approaches significantly improved knee function, neuromuscular control, and return-to-sport readiness compared to conventional methods.
  • Eccentric loading produced notable improvements in athletes with patellar tendinopathy, while criteria-based programs enhanced recovery post-ACL reconstruction.
  • Accelerated rehabilitation and personalized exercise prescription showed promising outcomes for efficiency in rehabilitation.
