Energy use during ACL reconstruction surgery
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study measures how much energy your body uses during ACL reconstruction surgery. It uses a special vest to track your heart rate and breathing, which may help surgeons understand how your body handles the operation.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are having a first-time ACL reconstruction surgery (not a repeat surgery).
- Your ACL tear is in one knee only, confirmed by MRI and physical exam.
- You are not having surgery on multiple knee ligaments or both knees at once.
- Your surgeon will use a special wearable device (Hexoskin) during the operation.
- You can understand and sign a consent form for the study.

This trial uses a special light-based device (NIRS) to check muscle health in athletes who had ACL surgery. It aims to improve rehabilitation for cycling or running sports.
This study measures oxygen levels in your muscles and hemoglobin (a blood protein that carries oxygen) while you recover after arthroscopic hip surgery. It may help researchers understand how the body responds during rehabilitation after orthopedic surgery.
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 whether a special muscle-stimulating device worn after ACL reconstruction surgery can help your knee recover strength faster. If you qualify, you will use the device at home for a few weeks and your recovery will be checked regularly.
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 looks at how muscle strength, power, and control relate to daily function after ACL reconstruction. It may help you understand your recovery progress and guide your rehabilitation.
