Effects of Continuous Passive Motion Following ACL Reconstruction with Autogenous Patellar Tendon Grafts

Abstract: This study examined the benefits and possible risks of immediate continuous passive motion after autogenous patellar tendon reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament. Thirty patients scheduled to undergo ACL reconstruction were prospectively randomized into two groups, CPM and non-CPM. Postoperatively, those in the non-CPM group wore a hinged knee brace. Those in the CPM group were kept on a CPM machine 16 hrs a day while in the hospital and they used it 6 hrs a day for the first 2 weeks postoperatively… Show more

“…The eight articles included were published between 1987 and 2013 and were conducted in Australia (n = 1) [22], Italy (n = 1) [21], Sweden (n = 1) [13], Switzerland (n = 1) [18], Turkey (n = 1) [16], and the USA (n = 3) [19,20,23]. The total study population of all selected articles together comprised 442 participants, of whom 156 had been assessed for differences in range of motion in five studies [13,16,18,20,23], 122 for differences in swelling in four studies [13,20,21,23] and 336 for differences in pain in four studies [16,19,22,23]. All participants underwent arthroscopic ACL reconstruction using semitendinosus or patellar ligament tendon grafts, with or without meniscal repair.…”

“…All participants in the intervention groups received CPM after surgery. However, the onset of CPM varied from immediately after surgery [22,23] to starting on the third postoperative day [16]. The end of the CPM intervention also varied.…”

“…In another 1992 study, Yates et al 26 evaluated the effects of 2 weeks of CPM following patellar tendon autograft ACL reconstruction. Using random sampling, 30 patients were randomized to either CPM 16 hours per day for the first 3 postoperative days followed by 6 hours per day for a total of 14 days use or an identical rehabilitation protocol without CPM.…”
