The electrodes which are placed in the middle or upper thigh will stimulate the quadriceps muscle.\n\nMyospare will be installed 1 day after the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction surgery and will be removed after 6 weeks of treatment. The patients will be assigned to two groups:\n\n1. Physiotherapy plus Myospare\n2. Only physiotherapy\n\nThe hypothesis of the study is that electrical stimulation combined with voluntary exercise is more effective than voluntary exercise alone.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '40 Years', 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': "Inclusion Criteria:\n\n1.
