The study aims to examine the effect of short-term rehabilitation exercise support using digital healthcare system (Uincare homeplus) in the patients with anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. The study is a two-arm prospective randomized controlled study comparing the effect of rehabilitation exercise digital healthcare system at home with conventional brochure-based home exercise. Limb Symmetry Index (LSI), Pain (using Numerical rating scale), knee joint range of motion (ROM), lower extremities motor power (using Manual muscle test), International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) and quality of life using EQ-5D-5L will be evaluation on enrollment, 2-weeks, 6-weeks, 12-weeks and 24-weeks after enrollment.
Anterior cruciate ligament(ACL) is a vital structure in the knee maintaining the stability and due to increased population engaging in sports activities, the ACL injury is becoming more prevalent among young adults. Rehabilitation after ACL reconstruction is essential to restore knee function and many factors including age, degree of sports activities engagement, weight bearing should be considered when organizing rehabilitation programs. Knee joint stiffness and weakness of knee flexor/extensor muscles are common problems following the surgery which are related to improper rehabilitation after ACL reconstructions.
Current method of post-operative rehabilitation is home-based self rehabilitation using brochure, combined with one or two times of education at the hospital before discharge. Patients often find difficulty in doing rehabilitation by themselves at home without supervision which resulted in decreased compliance.
With development of technologies using multi-motion sensor and AR(augmented-reality) system, the investigators have developed a digital healthcare system(Uincare Homeplus) which can supplement patients' rehabilitation at home by giving them proper instructions as well as feedback. In this prospective randomized controlled study, the investigators aim to compare the efficacy of the newlydeveloped digital healthcare system with conventional rehabilitation program.

| Rehabilitation using Digital Healthcare System (Uincare Homeplus) | Device | Uincare Homeplus is a device using infrared, kinect camera and motion capture technology to track 3D motion of the patients' posture and joint articulations. It also has embedded exercise training software dedicated to anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction post-op rehabilitation at home. Home-based self-rehabilitation using brochure for 2 weeks post surgery (same as the active comparator) Home-based self-rehabilitation using digital healthcare system(Uincare Homeplus) for 2 to 12 weeks post surgery. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Changes from baseline Limb Symmetry Index (LSI) of lower extremities | LSI(%) = (involved limb knee flexor and extensor manual muscle test score / uninvolved limb knee flexor and extensor manual muscle test score * 100). LSI ranges from 0-100 with higher score meaning better limb symmetry. | Enrollment, 2-weeks, 6-weeks, 12-weeks, 24-weeks |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) on the affected knee | Evaluation of pain of the affected shoulder using numerical rating scale (0-10, with score 0 indicating no pain). Higher score meaning worse pain. | Enrollment, 2-weeks, 6-weeks, 12-weeks, 24-weeks |
| Range of Motion (ROM) on the affected knee |
