TeleRehabilitation Following ACL Reconstruction
Telerehabilitation is a form of tele-treatment in which rehabilitation services are dispensed at patients' home utilizing video telecommunication services with real-time synchronous exchange of information. The advantages of telerehabilitation include reducing unnecessary travel to the hospital and person to person contact while maintaining social distancing. While some of the patients are truly staying at remote areas, others are unable to manage travel in the lockdown period. Telemedicine offers the opportunity to deliver rehabilitative services in the patients' home, closing geographic, physical, and motivational gaps. Punctuality on either side is also assured since the travel times are saved on both the ends.
The purpose of the proposed study is to evaluate telerehabilitation vs. in-person rehabilitation following ACL reconstruction. Objectives include assess return to sport and patient reported functional outcomes.

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
RTS (Return to Sport)
Time Frame: up to 1 year post-op
|
The day when the participant is able to fully participate in their sport, but not at their desired performance level.
|
up to 1 year post-op
|
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) Score
Time Frame: up to 1 year post-op
|
VAS is a validated, subjective measure for acute and chronic pain.
Scores are recorded by making a handwritten mark on a 10-cm line that represents a continuum between "no pain" and "worst pain."
The total score ranges from 0-10.
The higher the score, the worse the pain.
|
up to 1 year post-op
|
ACL-RSI Questionnaire Score
Time Frame: up to 1 year post-op
|
ACL-RSI (anterior cruciate ligament - return to sport) consists of 12 questions.
Each question is scored 0-100 with a total range of 0-1200.
The higher the score, the more positive psychological outlook a participant has.
|
up to 1 year post-op
|
Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS)
Time Frame: up to 1 year post-op
|
KOOS is a knee-specific instrument, developed to assess the participants' opinion about their knee and associated problems.
The KOOS evaluates both short-term and long-term consequences of knee injury.
It holds 42 items in 5 separately scored subscales.
Each subscale is calculated independently.
The calculated mean score of the individual items of each subscale will be divided by 4. The total score range is 0-100.
The lower the score, the more extreme the problems.
|
up to 1 year post-op
|
International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) Score
Time Frame: up to 1 year post-op
|
The IKDC is a patient-completed tool, which contains sections on knee symptoms (7 items), function (2 items), and sports activities (2 items).
Scores range from 0 points (lowest level of function or highest level of symptoms) to 100 points (highest level of function and lowest level of symptoms).
|
up to 1 year post-op
