Trial summary

The antero-external cruciate ligament (ACL) is the ligament located inside the knee, which allows the rotation of the knee by stabilizing the femur and the tibia. Rupture of the ACL is common during the practice of certain so-called "pivot" sports, whether contact or not. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Osteopathic Care After Rupture of the Antero-external Cruciate Ligament of the Knee

The antero-external cruciate ligament (ACL) is the ligament located inside the knee, which allows the rotation of the knee by stabilizing the femur and the tibia. Rupture of the ACL is common during the practice of certain so-called "pivot" sports, whether contact or not. It is manifested by acute pain or instability of the knee, following a crack during a twist and/or a blockage of the joint. The diagnosis will be confirmed by a clinical examination and X-rays to eliminate any fracture or tearing and by MRI to visualize the ligament rupture and the associated lesions, in particular a lesion of the meniscus.

Treatment is required because the ruptured ligament does not heal on its own and the rupture of the ligament may eventually promote the appearance of osteoarthritis. Two types of treatment can be considered, rehabilitation or surgery, depending on the patient's age and motivation to resume sports. There are several surgical techniques, the most common is to reconstruct the ruptured ligament by arthroscopy using a graft taken from the tendons of the Internal Rectus and Demi muscles tendinous (DIDT). Rehabilitation by physiotherapy is often started preoperatively and immediately after the operation, as soon as you wake up, to find a functional and painless knee. Functional recovery often depends on patient motivation.

The main objective is to show that osteopathic care in addition to physiotherapy rehabilitation improves knee functionality in patients 6 months after reconstruction of the ACL by DIDT.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Osteopathy and Physiotherapy in people with Cruciate Ligament Rupture and Knee Ligament Injury, run by GCS Ramsay Santé pour l'Enseignement et la Recherche at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 10 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 May 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Jean-François Oudet (0683346567, jf.oudet@ecten.eu), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

assess the functionality of the knee (time frame: 6 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 25 May 2023.
