Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a leading cause of disability worldwide that affects millions of Americans each year. Posttraumatic OA (PTOA) significantly impacts patients after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury and ACL reconstruction (ACLR) with approximately 50% of patients developing PTOA within 20 years of injury or surgery. Knee joint mechanical loading measured via physical activity (i.e. daily steps) is insufficient in individuals after ACLR compared to uninjured individuals. Establishing the beneficial effects of physical activity to promote optimal free-living knee joint mechanical loading and improve knee joint health will aid in the development of cost-effective interventions that prevent PTOA and health burden of the disease.
