Abstract

The purpose of this study was to verify the effects of myofunction and Lysholm score after rehabilitation exercise program following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. Rehabilitation exercise program was performed for 16 weeks and divided by four stages. Eleven patients were participated. Measurement items were Lysholm score and peak torque, peak torque/bw, total work, average power and deficit ratio of isokinetic muscle strength and power in respectively 60deg/sec and 180deg/sec. This study showed that knee extensor in 60deg/sec increased on peak torque(p<.01), peak torque/bw(p<.01), total work(p<.01), average power(p<.01), and extensor in 180deg/sec increased on peak torque(p<.001), peak torque/bw(p<.001), total work(p<.001), average power(p<.001). Knee flexor in 60deg/sec increased on peak torque(p<.05), peak torque/bw(p<.05), total work(p<.01), average power(p<.05), and flexor in 180deg/sec increased on peak torque, peak torque/bw, total work, average power. Deficit ratio at knee extensor in 60deg/sec decreased on peak torque(p<.001), and deficit ratio in 180deg/sec decreased on peak torque(p<.001). Deficit ratio at knee flexor in 60deg/sec decreased on peak torque(p<.01), and deficit ratio at knee flexor in 180deg/sec decreased on peak torque. Lysholm score increased significantly(p<.001).
