No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This study will evaluate the efficacy of the Graymont X ERIS Knee Splint brace in the postoperative period of ACL reconstruction to improve range of motion, specifically the achievement of terminal extension and time-to-achievement compared to the standard hinged knee brace. This will be directly measured with goniometric angle and heel-height measurements relative to the contralateral side. Other metrics will include standard, validated patient reported outcomes and requirements for additional interventions to treat extension deficits including, but not limited to, additional therapy, intraarticular injections, oral corticosteroids, manipulation under anesthesia, or arthroscopic arthrolysis.
