Summary

Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries are recurrent, especially in sports. There is still no consensus on the characterization of functional indicators in this clinical condition, as well as their correlation with measuring instruments and clinical functional tests. It is intended to study the changes in functionality of users undergoing this surgery, aiming with functional assessment scales at different times of recovery. This will allow deciding on more adapted recovery strategies, which can meet the musculoskeletal requirements of the user.

Conditions

  • Ligament Injury
  • Ligament Rupture
  • Ligament Disorders

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Diagnostic test through functional tests and comparison of scales applied to participants in the pre-surgical and post-surgical period.

The protocol is based on the ligamentization stages, since the bibliography relates the ligamentization process with rehabilitation. These stages are necrosis, revascularization, cellular priorities and collagen formation, and different care is required for each stage. Taking these aspects into account, the authors developed recommendations to establish a protocol divided by the evaluation phases of the present work. Users should only move on to the next phase if they achieve the expected results, or that makes the total duration of each protocol vary from user to user. tests and scales will be evaluated before surgery, after 6 weeks of surgery and at the end of treatment.
