Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness and value of clinic-based physical therapy (PT) and a home-based, self-directed exercise program (SDEP). The home exercise program will be developed by a team of physical therapists, orthopaedic trauma surgeons and experts in rehabilitation engagement in collaboration with patients recovering from traumatic lower-extremity injuries. The study will also determine which subgroups of individuals based on patient and injury characteristics are the best candidates for a home exercise program.
