NCT04862013 | Completed

• 1 other identifier: RTSACL
• Study Type: observational
• Target: 133
• Locations: 1 country
• Sites: 1

Brief Summary

Patients who were surgically treated with ACL reconstruction at a single clinic between 2013 and 2018 will be approached by a questionnaire regarding their return to sport after surgery. Questions will focus on the timepoint of the return, subsequent injuries, and the impact of the initial injury on the life of the patients. In addition, existing clinical data from the baseline visit and from the follow-up visits offered routinely to the patient will be used.

Conditions

Anterior Cruciate Ligament Injuries; Reconstruction

Keywords

anterior cruciate ligament injuries; return to sport

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

• Time until return to sport

  This will be based on a self reporting by the patient.

  All patients will be asked in a cross sectional assessment, i.e. at one specific date (planned: May 31, 2021). The distance of this time point to the time of surgery will vary between 2 and 8 years.

• Occurrence of a subsequent injury after return to sport

  This will be based on the self reporting by the patient

  All patients will be asked in a cross sectional assessment, i.e. at one specific date (planned: May 31, 2021). The distance of this time point to the time of surgery will vary between 2 and 8 years.

Secondary Outcomes (2)

• Average Muscle Strength

  At 1 year follow up.

• Relative frequency of coping strategies

  All patients will be asked in a cross sectional assessment, i.e. at one specific date (planned: May 31, 2021). The distance of this time point to the time of surgery will vary between 2 and 8 years.

Eligibility Criteria

• Age: 18 Years+
• Sex: all
• Healthy Volunteers: No
• Age Groups: Adult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)
• Sampling Method: Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

All patients of age ≥18, who had an ACL injury and were surgically treated with ACL reconstruction at the crossklinik or affiliated institutions between 1.1.2013 and 31.12.2018 by a small group of experienced surgeons will be included in the study.

You may qualify if:

• Age ≥18
• ACL injury
• surgically treated with ACL reconstruction at the crossklinik or affiliated institutions between 1.1.2013 and 31.12.2018

You may not qualify if:

• different treatment approach to the injury (e.g. conservative, stimulation of healing response, surgical treatment for re-rupture etc.).
