Vibration therapy to help recover strength after ACL surgery
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You had ACL reconstruction surgery (either the Kenneth Jones method or hamstring graft) on one of your knees
- You are between 18 and 45 years old
- You are enrolled in or eligible for a French social security program
- This is your first ACL reconstruction on this knee (no previous surgeries on the same knee)
- You are currently being treated at the Dracy-le-Fort Orthopedic Center in France
- You can attend all scheduled visits and follow the study protocol

This trial tests if adding electrical stimulation to standard physical therapy helps people recover strength and movement after ACL reconstruction surgery. It compares two rehab programs starting within days after surgery.
This study tests a home-based physical therapy program (tele-rehabilitation) for people recovering from ACL reconstruction surgery. It may help you regain strength and movement in your knee without needing to travel to a clinic.
This trial tests whether hyperbaric oxygen therapy (breathing oxygen in a pressurized chamber) can help you recover faster after ACL knee surgery. If you're having ACL reconstruction, this treatment might reduce healing time.
This study looks at whether using vibration after an ACL injury helps predict or reduce the risk of developing post-traumatic osteoarthritis (wear-and-tear arthritis) later. It may help researchers learn which patients are more likely to develop arthritis after ACL reconstruction.
This trial studies whether a vibrating device on the front of the knee can reduce persistent pain after ACL reconstruction. It may help people whose pain is focused in one knee and isn’t caused by arthritis or other knee problems.
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.
