Effects of High-intensity Laser Therapy Combined with Proprioceptive Training on Knee Pain and Motor Function in Patients with Meniscal Injury
Objective To explore the therapeutic effect of high-intensity laser therapy(HILT)combined with proprioception training on knee pain and function in patients with meniscal injury.Methods A total of 82 patients with knee meniscal injury who were admitted to our hospital from January 2021 to January 2023 and planned to undergo arthroscopic meniscus reconstruction surgery were selected.They were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group using a random number table method,with 41 cases in each group.After 2 weeks of postoperative rehabilitation training,the control group received proprioceptive training,while the observation group received HILT combined with proprioceptive training.The visual analogue scale(VAS)scores,SF-12,the American Knee Association(AKS)scores,knee active range of motion and lower limb movement indicators(step frequency,step length,step speed),incidence of complications,and patient satisfaction were observed in all patients.Results After 10 weeks of treatment,the VAS score in the two groups was significantly lower than that before treatment(P＜0.05),while the SF-12 score,AKS knee joint score and activity function score,knee joint flexion and extension angle,and lower limb movement indicators were significantly improved compared to those before treatment(P＜0.05).The VAS score in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group(P＜0.05),while the SF-12 score,knee joint score and activity function score,knee joint flexion and extension angle,and lower limb movement indicators in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group(P＜0.05).Conclusion HILT combined with proprioceptive training can effectively relief knee pain,improve motor function and quality of life in patients with meniscal injury,and can also reduce postoperative complications and improve treatment satisfaction.
