Can muscle power predict recovery after ACL surgery?

NCT ID NCT07765173

First seen Aug 14, 2026 · Last updated Aug 14, 2026

Summary

This study follows physically active people who undergo ACL reconstruction surgery to see how their knee muscle strength and power change over six months. Researchers will measure muscle function in both legs and compare it to patients' own reports of how well their knee works. The goal is to understand whether objective muscle tests align with how patients feel and function after surgery.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Muscle function assessments (strength and power tests) and questionnaires
What this could lead to
If successful, this could improve rehabilitation strategies for ACL reconstruction patients by better linking objective muscle recovery to patient-reported outcomes.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, so it cannot prove cause and effect. Results may not apply to all patients, and the correlation between strength and patient-reported function may be weak.
