Knee surgery recovery gets a digital boost: new app tested in 448-Patient trial

NCT ID NCT07030764

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study compares standard physical therapy to standard therapy plus a smartphone app (DOCT'UP®) for people recovering from ACL knee surgery. The app provides home exercises that target a common problem called 'arthrogenic muscle inhibition' (AMI), where the thigh muscle doesn't activate properly after injury. Researchers will measure how many patients still have AMI and how well they stick to their rehab program. The goal is to see if the app leads to faster, better recovery.
