“…Based on a recent study, around 80% of athletes who receive ACLR surgery can resume participating in sports. However, their outcomes are not significantly better than those who receive nonoperative treatment [ 28 ]. Nevertheless, a significant number of patients necessitate the adjustment of their physical activities, opting for less strenuous exercise, engaging in sports that do not include sudden changes in direction or sharp turns and/or refraining from the specific activity that led to the injury [ 28 ].…”

“…However, their outcomes are not significantly better than those who receive nonoperative treatment [ 28 ]. Nevertheless, a significant number of patients necessitate the adjustment of their physical activities, opting for less strenuous exercise, engaging in sports that do not include sudden changes in direction or sharp turns and/or refraining from the specific activity that led to the injury [ 28 ]. An analysis of multiple research studies revealed that the rate of returning to preinjury levels ranged from 63% to 95%.…”

“…Several factors, including reinjury anxiety, psychological readiness and high rehabilitation desire, have an impact on the RTS process [ 36 , 45 ]. Additional criteria encompass the severity of the injury, the patient's age, gender and level of physical activity, the specific type of graft employed, and the rehabilitation regimen [ 28 ]. Furthermore, the ability to resume athletic activities following ACL repair surgery can be significantly impacted by psychosocial elements, such as one's expectations and beliefs regarding the rehabilitation process, anxiety related to performance and inherent personal traits [ 7 ].…”

PurposeThe purpose of this study is to analyze the short anterior cruciate ligament return to sport after injury (ACL‐RSI) (Persian) version's cultural adaption and validity.MethodsTo assess test–retest reliability, 102 participants were filled out the short ACL‐RSI(Per) scale 6 months or more after ACLR surgery. Internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha), test–retest reliability (intraclass correlation coefficients), construct validity (Pearson's r) and sensitivity (floor/ceiling effect) were determined. In addition, patient completed other relevant measures such as Lysholm scores, the hospital for special surgery ACL satisfaction survey (HSS ACL‐SS), the visual analogue scale (VAS) of pain and patient's satisfaction, the Tegner activity score (TAS), the single assessment numeric evaluation (SANE) and the Cincinnati Knee Rating System (CKRS).ResultsThe short ACL‐RSI(Per) scale showed high internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha = 0.91) and test–retest reliability (ICC = 0.923). Significant correlations between short ACL‐RSI(Per) and other scales supported validity. There was a statistically significant connection between the short ACL‐RSI(Per) and the following outcomes: HSS ACL‐SS (r = 0.698, p < 0.001), VAS pain (r = 0.356, p < 0.001), CKRS (r = 0.644, p < 0.001), TAS (r = 0414, p < 0.001), Lysholm score (r = 0.467, p < 0.001) and SANE score (r = 0.536; p < 0.001). In addition to a satisfactory ceiling impact (15%), a sizeable floor effect (16.7%) was also seen.ConclusionThe short ACL‐RSI(Per) scale is a reliable and valid tool for assessing psychological readiness for return to sport after ACL reconstruction in Persian.Level of EvidenceIII.

“…In particular, these studies are being performed in the population with, or at risk for, post-traumatic osteoarthritis (PTOA) due to the well-established exposure in a younger population with fewer co-morbidities and confounders [7]. Specific injuries, such as traumatic anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) ruptures, have a significant risk of subsequent knee PTOA [7,8].…”
