Summary

This study tests whether a short cognitive-behavioral program before ACL reconstruction surgery can reduce fear of movement and improve physical function. Researchers will enroll 44 patients aged 18-45 and use questionnaires, movement tests, and brain activity measurements to see if the approach helps. The goal is to ease recovery by addressing the mental side of injury.
