Brief Summary:
Anterior cruciate ligament ACL tear is common It accounts for over 50 of all knee injuries Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction ACLR with hamstring tendon HT autograft is the common graft choice for ACLR However the outcomes of donor site healing and recovery of muscle strength of HT are not satisfactory resulting in hamstring muscle weakness and hamstring strength deficit during deep knee flexion which may lead to hamstring strain after ACLR Moreover activation of the hamstring muscle is vital for maintaining dynamic knee joint stability and preventing excessive ACL shear forces The presence of hamstring muscle deficits after surgery therefore affects the function of the reconstruction ACL A previous study has reported that the hamstring muscle showed nearly 20 strength deficit at 4 months after ACLR with hamstring autograft
Pulsed electromagnetic field PEMF treatment is a non-invasive therapy that has been shown to enhance muscle cell activity and accelerate tissue repair In clinic PEMF treatment has been reported to be safe
This study aims to conduct a double-blinded placebo-controlled randomised clinical trial to investigate the effects of PEMF therapy for improving the tissue regeneration and strength of the HT donor site in ACLR patients with HT autograft
