Early rehab after knee fracture surgery
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial tests a specific exercise program started soon after surgery for a type of knee fracture called a tibial spine avulsion. It is meant for young, active people who had a recent fall or sports injury and may help them recover movement and strength faster.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 15 and 25 years old.
- Your knee injury is a tibial spine avulsion fracture (a small piece of bone has been pulled off where a ligament attaches).
- The injury happened during a fall or while playing sports.
- You had surgery to fix the fracture with a special stitch (fiber wire) and a camera (arthroscope).
- You do not have other major leg fractures or multiple torn knee ligaments.

This study compares two physical therapy methods—perturbation training (balance challenges) versus functional activity training—to help men recover better knee movement, balance, and strength after ACL reconstruction surgery. It aims to find which approach reduces pain and improves daily activities more effectively.
This trial studies rehabilitation after a tibia (shinbone) shaft fracture that is fixed with a metal nail. You may be asked to complete questionnaires and to take part in a rehab plan that aims to improve recovery after injury.
This study compares two different rehabilitation programs after surgery for a broken thigh or shin bone fixed with a metal rod. It aims to help you recover faster and improve your ability to walk and move.
This trial tests whether a simpler “at-home” rehabilitation plan after ankle or lower-leg bone (tibial plafond) fractures works as well as standard care. It may help you recover strength and walking function with less clinic time.
This study tests whether a structured strength-training program is safe and helpful for adults recovering from thighbone or shinbone fractures treated with surgical rods. The goal is to help you regain muscle strength and function as you heal.
This study tests if starting to put weight on your leg and doing knee exercises soon after surgery helps patients with a specific type of tibial plateau fracture recover better.
