Vibratory Stimuli: A Novel Rehabilitation Method for Preventing Post-traumatic Knee Osteoarthritis

Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

This study will evaluate the acute effects of vibration (whole body vibration and local muscle vibration) on quadriceps function, knee joint proprioception, and gait biomechanics linked to osteoarthritis development in individuals with anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. Subjects will be randomly assigned to control (no vibration), whole body vibration, and local muscle vibration groups, and the aforementioned characteristics will be assessed prior to and following the respective interventions.
