Abstract

Objectives: Find out the factors related to the rehabilitation of knee mobility after arthroscopic arthrolysis surgery. Patients and methodology: 32 patients diagnosed with post-traumatic knee stiffness underwent arthroscopic arthrolysis surgery at VietDuc University  Hospital from September 2020 to September 2021. The patients received rehabilitation treatment immediately after surgery to remove adhesions and continued for 2 months. Evaluate patients according to The Hospital for Special Surgery Knee Scores (HSS) at the time before and after rehabilitation treatment. Results: There was no significant difference in rehabilitation outcomes between men and women with p > 0.05. There was no significant difference in rehabilitation results between the two age groups above and below 60 years old with p>0.05. There was no significant difference in the results of rehabilitation between the primary groups of injuries, which were intra-articular, extra-articular or combined intra- and extra-articular damage with p> 0.05. There was no significant difference in the results of rehabilitation between the groups of conservative, arthroscopic surgery or open surgery groups with p>0.05. There was no significant difference in the outcome of rehabilitation between groups of patients, the time from injury to surgery was < 3 months, 3 - 6 months or more than 6 months. Conclusion: There was no significant difference in rehabilitation results between the two sexes, between the two age groups above and below 60 years old, between the primary injury groups being intra-articular, extra-articular or combined intra-articular and extra-articular damage, between groups with conservative, arthroscopic surgery or open surgery, between groups of patients, the time from injury to surgery is < 3 months, 3 - 6 months or > 6 months.
