Can a new way of running heal Soldiers' knees?

NCT ID NCT03918681

Summary

This study aimed to see if teaching a specific running technique helps soldiers recover better from ACL knee surgery. It compared a special gait retraining program to a standard return-to-running plan. The goal was to reduce knee pain, improve function, and possibly lower the risk of future arthritis. The trial was terminated early and only included a small group of soldiers and cadets.
