Application of strengthening comprehensive sensory training in early rehabilitation after anterior cruciate ligament re-construction
Objective:To explore the application value of strengthening comprehensive sensory training in early re-habilitation after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.Methods:87 patients who underwent anterior cruciate lig-ament reconstruction were selected and randomly divided into the conventional group(28 patients),the propriocep-tive group(29 patients),and the comprehensive group(30 patients).All patients received conventional rehabilita-tion.The proprioceptive group received additional early postoperative seated proprioception training,and the com-prehensive group received additional early postoperative seated proprioception training and tactile and thermal sensa-tion training.At 2 and 6 weeks after treatment,the angle difference in joint position reproduction was compared.Before treatment,2 and 6 weeks after treatment,the Berg balance scale(BBS)and the Lysholm knee scale score were used to evaluate the patients,and the incidence of adverse events during rehabilitation was compared.Results:After 6 weeks of treatment,the angle difference in joint position reproduction of all 3 groups was significantly smal-ler than that after 2 weeks of treatment(P<0.05).At 2 weeks and 6 weeks of treatment,the angle difference in joint position reproduction of the comprehensive group and the proprioceptive group was significantly smaller than that of the conventional group(P<0.05),but there was no statistical difference between the comprehensive group and the proprioceptive group.At 2 weeks and 6 weeks of treatment,the BBS and Lysholm knee scale scores of all 3 groups were higher than those before treatment(P<0.05),and the BBS and Lysholm knee scale scores of the 3 groups after 6 weeks of treatment were higher than those after 2 weeks of treatment(P<0.05).The BBS and Ly-sholm knee scale scores of the comprehensive group and the proprioceptive group were significantly higher than those of the conventional group at 2 weeks and 6 weeks of treatment(P<0.05).At 6 weeks of treatment,the BBS and Lysholm knee scale scores of the comprehensive group were significantly higher than those of the proprioceptive group(P<0.05).At 2 weeks of treatment,there was no significant difference in BBS and Lysholm knee scale sco-res between the comprehensive group and the proprio-ceptive group.There was no statistical difference in the incidence of adverse events between the 3 groups.Con-clusion:The strengthening comprehensive sensory train-ing can effectively enhance proprioception,balance,mo-tor control,and other abilities of patients in the early stage following ACL reconstruction,thereby facilitating accelerated rehabilitation of knee joint function.This approach is both safe and deserving of widespread adoption.
