Brain training to improve muscle recovery after joint surgery
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This trial tests whether brain-computer interface training can help you regain muscle control more effectively after knee or hip surgery. It focuses on four common procedures and uses neurofeedback to optimize muscle activation during recovery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study tests whether special balance and body awareness exercises can help you walk better and improve your knee function after ACL reconstruction. If you are in the early stages of recovery, this program may help you regain control of your knee.
This trial tests whether adding vibration treatments to standard physical therapy helps people regain muscle strength and function faster after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction surgery. The ACL is a key ligament in the knee that helps stabilize it.
This study looks at how doing a thinking task at the same time as a walking or balance task affects recovery in people who have had ACL reconstruction surgery. It may help you understand what to expect during later stages of rehab.
This study uses brain scans (fMRI) to see how a special type of movement training affects the brain after ACL surgery. If you've had an ACL repair and are active in sports, you may be eligible.
This study tests if a gentle, noninvasive brain stimulation called tDCS can improve how your brain controls leg muscles and speeds up recovery after ACL surgery.
This study tests whether combining cognitive (thinking) exercises with physical rehabilitation after anterior shoulder stabilization surgery helps patients recover better and return to activities faster. You'll do supervised rehabilitation sessions that may include mental challenges alongside physical therapy.
