Reconstructive surgery after anterior cruciate ligament rupture: surgical technique for repairing the cruciate ligament
sessions from a physical therapist: sessions from a physical therapist in accordance with standard practice
Study summary
The purpose of this study is to compare changes in lower limb symmetry during functional and strength tests, before and after the motor imagery program, in patients who received the 3-week motor imagery program starting 3 months post-surgery versus patients who did not receive the motor imagery program.
Eligibility
Inclusion Criteria:
* Patients aged 18 to 45;

* Patient participating in another interventional clinical trial, or in a period of exclusion from another interventional study;
* Patient under guardianship or conservatorship;
* Pregnant or breastfeeding women.
