Enhancing Muscle Strength Post Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction: A Case Report Assessing the Effectiveness of Russian Current.
Curēus 2024 Februrary
The effectiveness of Russian electrical stimulation in enhancing muscular strength after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) restoration is examined in this case study. In addition to traditional physiotherapy, a 29-year-old male athlete having ACL repair took part in a Russian contemporary rehabilitation regimen. Subjective evaluations of pain and functional tests all showed a substantial increase in muscular strength following the intervention. The Russian current's distinct waveform and high-frequency bursts appeared to improve neuromuscular control and quicken the activation of skeletal muscle in the excitation-contraction phase. The evaluation conducted after the intervention revealed notable enhancements in muscular strength and scores on the lower extremity functional scale. The initial score of 32, indicating a moderate functional limitation, improved to 64, indicating a minimal functional limitation. Additionally, the use of Russian electrical stimulation in ACL rehabilitation programs resulted in a reduction in pain levels from 9/10 to 3/10, as measured by the visual analog scale. These findings suggest that the implementation of Russian electrical stimulation shows promise in ACL rehabilitation. However, to validate and further explore these results, it is necessary to conduct larger-scale research studies and randomized controlled trials.
