Knee surgery aftermath: can your balance predict a second tear?

NCT ID NCT04162613

First seen May 05, 2026 · Last updated May 14, 2026 · Updated 4 times

Summary

This study followed 201 young people who had ACL knee surgery to see if poor sensorimotor function (body awareness and control) could predict a future graft tear, a new ACL injury in the other knee, or failure to return to sports within 3 years. Participants were 15-35 years old and 8-16 months post-surgery. The goal is to help identify who is at higher risk so they can get extra support.
