“…The fact that the patient regains a full range of flexion and extension in the knee joint, as well as a reduction or elimination of pain is a significant determinant of successful physiotherapy. A quicker recovery of the range of extension in the operated knee joint and lower intensity of pain in the final measurement noted in the research group may indicate a certain therapeutic value of pre-surgical physiotherapy [10].…”

Introduction. Prognostic indices of orthopaedic implications development were investigated among patients with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries on the basis of stabilography research during the functional period of rehabilitation. Methods. The study included 52 randomly selected individuals with a complete ACL tear qualified for surgical reconstruction. The patients' age was 18-59 (average: 37.8 ± 2.0) years. All participants underwent rehabilitation treatment in the institute of Traumatology and orthopaedics, National Academy of Medical Sciences of Ukraine, and had surgeries in the institute's clinics. The crural part of the graft was fixed with the assistance of either the RigidFix system or the Cross-Pin system, and the Biointrafix or Biosure Sync system was applied for the tibial part. Results and conclusions. on the basis of the performed analysis of indices that characterize the functional condition of the injured limb of patients with an injury of ACL of knee joint at the functional stage of rehabilitation treatment, it is possible to identify a high and medium level of loading asymmetry in the lower extremities, decrease of electrobiological activity and muscle resistance ability during bending, stretching, adduction, and abduction, as the main prognostic criterion of orthopaedic complications development.

Non-contact ACL injuries usually occur when an athlete lands from a jump. Therefore, landing training is frequently used as an injury-prevention strategy. This systematic review aims to investigate the effects of action observation in the motor learning of the proper landing technique for healthy adults.Randomized controlled trials were deemed eligible if they included athletically active healthy adults without a history of lower limb injuries and if they compared action observation, in the form of direct observation or video feedback, to the control. The outcome measures were lower extremity biomechanical parameters: sagittal plane flexion angles, dynamic knee valgus and vertical ground reaction force.Six trials were included. Two trials were rated at low risk of bias, one trial with some concerns and three trials with a high risk of bias. Pooled data analysis indicated that action observation improves peak knee flexion (MD 15.95, 95% CI 3.53 to 28.38, I2 = 92%) and initial contact knee flexion (MD 4.05, 95% CI 1.62 to 6.48, I2 = 0%). It may also improve peak hip flexion (MD 18.16, 95% CI -1.71 to 38.03, I2 = 92%) and dynamic knee valgus (SMD 0.52, 95% CI -0.31 to 1.34, I2 = 75%) and has no effect on vertical ground reaction force (SMD -0.04, 95% CI -0.68 to 0.61, I2 = 62%) compared to the control.In conclusion, we can state that action observation is a potential strategy to enhance motor learning of the proper landing technique in healthy individuals.

Introduction: ACL anterior cruciate ligament rupture is one of the most common effects of sports knee injuries. Arthroscopic treatment is the least invasive type of surgery that restores the normal function of the ligament and the kinematics of the knee joint. Early introduced physiotherapy is the last stage of this treatment, which allows you to quickly regain mobility. Aim of the study: To evaluate the influence of deep oscillation on the early results of physiotherapy and on the activity of selected indicators of vascular inflammation and embolism in patients after reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament of the knee joint. Methods: The study involved 60 patients divided into 2 groups: study (N = 30) and control (N = 30). In the study group (GB), the knee joint was additionally deeply oscillated. The mean age of the examined people was 32.7±6.5 years. Women constituted 26.6% of the respondents, and men 73.3%. Measurements of the pain level (VAS scale and algeimeter), the range of motion of the knee joint, the extent of the swelling as well as the level of inflammatory and thrombotic markers (CPR and D-dimmers) were performed.
