简要总结

The goal of this clinical trial is to understand if people recovering from anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) surgery will complete mental imagery training and if this will improve their injured leg's strength. The main questions are:

  • Will people complete a five-day mental imagery exercise schedule while in physical therapy for ACLR?
  • Does mental imagery exercise help raise leg strength during ACLR recovery? Researchers will also compare if different mental imagery exercises involving leg extension or squats will change leg strength.

Participants will be asked to:

  • Participate in two testing sessions to make measurements of leg function
  • Complete about 10 minutes of mental imagery exercises once per day for five days at home and write down whether they complete the exercises.

结局指标

主要结局

Feasibility of Intervention

时间窗: Once per day for 5 days

At the end of the paper packet with instructions for mental imagery exercises, there will be a survey in which participants will record whether or not they have completed the exercises. They will be instructed to fill out this form each day even if they have not done the exercise. Investigators will assess how many days participants complete the exercises.

次要结局

  • Knee Extension Strength(Pre and post 5 days of mental imagery intervention)
