NCT ID NCT07190456

First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 14, 2026 · Updated 24 times

Summary

This study looks at why some people who have had ACL knee surgery are afraid to move or exercise, even after they've healed. Researchers want to find out if this fear is about movement in general or just specific sports activities. They will measure fear using questionnaires, heart rate, and skin responses in 21 volunteers. The goal is to improve how we assess and treat this fear, helping people return to sports more confidently.
