Psychological and Functional Outcomes in Athletes Post-ACL Reconstruction: A Narrative Review of the Impact of Symptomatic and Non-Symptomatic Recovery

Author(s) Dr. Shivanjali Singh, Poonam Dhankher
Country India
Abstract ACL injuries make it difficult for athletes to resume sports without surgery because they cause joint swelling, muscle weakness, altered movement, and decreased functional performance. Even though the most common surgery for ACL-injured athletes who want to return to competitive sports is anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR), less than half of them recover within the first year following surgery, and about 25% of those who do experience another knee injury. Physical activity, which is part of the non-surgical treatment, is impacted by psychological outcomes such as lack of confidence and fear of re-injury. ACL injury patients have also reported poor subjective knee function, asymmetric hop performance, landing mechanics similar to those at risk for ACL injury, insufficient and asymmetric quadriceps strength, and an increased chance of a second ACL injury. Investigating the effects of both symptomatic and non-symptomatic recovery following ACL reconstruction in athletes is the aim of this study. Boolean operators and MeSH key headings were used to electronically search the PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and Google Scholar databases in order to find relevant articles from the previous 15 years.
Keywords ACL reconstruction, symptomatic athletes, psychological outcomes, functional performance, return to sports, kinesiophobia, resilience and fear-avoidance beliefs.
