Dynamic Muscular Electrical Stimulation Following Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction in Military Academy Cadets
NCT06341868 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
Study Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to examine the effects of 12 weeks of post-operative use of a novel wearable electrical stimulation knee sleeve device (KneeStim) on post-operative biomechanical function (gait). Participants will be United States Military Academy cadets aged 17-27 years. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Examine the effects of KneeStim wear on cadets' post-operative gait * Examine changes in site-specific skeletal muscle mass * Examine the changes in patient-reported outcomes * Assess time to return to full duty * Compare Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA) measurements to Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) measurements (total thigh volume) * Determine the concurrent criterion validity of the KneeStim device compared to gold- standard metrics (3D Motion Capture) Participants will undergo body composition analysis, MRI, strength testing, standard of care rehabilitation, gait analysis, and complete surveys. Participants will wear the KneeStim during their standard of care rehabilitation visits for the first 5 weeks post-operative, and throughout daily tasks from 6-12 weeks. Researchers will compare a control group (standard of care + KneeStim controlled low intensity) to an experimental group (standard of care + KneeStim flexible intensity) to assess the aims previously mentioned..

Full Details on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT06341868
The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT06341868 describes a study currently listed as recruiting. It is categorized as NA, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 60 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is Keller Army Community Hospital, which has 4 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.
The record links to 1 condition, with Anterior Cruciate Ligament Injuries appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 1 intervention — of which KneeStim is the first listed. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.
Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT06341868 reports 1 study location spanning 1 distinct geographic area — top geographies include New York. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll.
