Abstract
Objective
To determine the effectiveness of psychological interventions in postoperative anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) compared to standard rehabilitation.
Methods
The databases searched were PubMed, MEDLINE, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, PEDro, Cumulative Index to Nursing & Allied Health Literature, and EMBASE were searched from each database inception to May 2023 for published studies. The methodological quality was assessed with the Cochrane Risk of Bias Assessment (RoB 2.0) tool. The evidence quality was evaluated using the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluation approach.
Results
Six papers were included in the meta-analysis. Psychological intervention significantly improved Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia at 3 months (Standard Mean Difference [SMD], −0.51. 95% Confidence Interval [CI], −0.85 to −0.17) and pain (Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score for Pain, Numeric Rating Scale, Visual Analog Scale) at 3 months (SMD, −0.92. 95%CI, −1.69 to −0.15) and at 6 months following ACLR (MD, −1.25. 95%CI, −1.82 to −0.68) when compared with the standard rehabilitation, according to very low-quality data. Self-efficacy and knee strength did not show significant differences.
Conclusion
Very low-quality evidence suggests that psychological intervention following ACLR yields better short-term outcomes compared to standard rehabilitation, with uncertainty about its clinically significant benefits over standard rehabilitation.
