Dr. S. Zaffagnini discusses how the Videoinsight method improves subjective outcomes in ACL rehabilitation
106 patients were selected in this preliminary trial to study the psychological influence of the Videoinsight method on short term subjective and functional recovery after single bundle ACL reconstruction. Patients were randomized to view either positive "insight" images or negative images during their 3 month rehabilitation period. The positive images greatly improved subjective outcomes such as International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC), Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobia (TSK) scores, and time to crutches discharge, compared to negative ones. A positive correlation between TSK scores and time to crutches was also discovered.
