Summary

This study follows 69 adults undergoing surgery for a torn anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) to find out what counts as a meaningful improvement in knee function. Researchers will use the Lysholm Knee Score to identify the smallest change that matters to patients and what factors might slow recovery. The goal is to help doctors and patients set clearer expectations after ACL reconstruction.
