Study Summary

Several attempts have been made to reduce these failure rates and improve return to sports rates in high-risk populations, and one of these approaches has been postoperative bracing. A recent survey of the Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) Study Group has shown that 53% of surgeons prefers functional bracing following ACL reconstruction. Currently, however, there is no clear consensus on whether functional bracing following ACL reconstruction leads to lower failure rates, improved stability or better patient-reported outcomes when compared to ACL reconstruction without bracing.

Primary Outcome

The ACL-Return to Sport after Injury scale (ACL-RSI) is a 12-item survey that measures psychological readiness to return to sport after an ACL injury or surgery. It uses a visual analog scale from 0 to 100, where higher scores indicate greater psychological readiness. The total score is calculated as a percentage of the 12-item total score. A higher ACL-RSI score indicates a greater level of psychological readiness for returning to sport.
