Multicenter Orthopaedic Outcomes Network (MOON) Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) Reconstruction (ACLR): Onsite Follow-up
In this study we will examine patients who have undergone unilateral ACL reconstruction
surgery to determine which structural and functional characteristics of the knee two and ten
years post reconstruction surgery, aspects of the original injury and repair, and patient
characteristics are risk factors for osteoarthritis after ACL reconstruction surgery.
surgery to determine which structural and functional characteristics of the knee two and ten
years post reconstruction surgery, aspects of the original injury and repair, and patient
characteristics are risk factors for osteoarthritis after ACL reconstruction surgery.
The purpose of this study is identify risk factors for signs and symptoms of osteoarthritis
two and ten year post ACL reconstruction from information available at the time of surgery;
including patient characteristics (age, gender, body mass index (BMI), activity level,
clinical knee alignment), their injuries ("pop" heard at the time of injury, concurrent
meniscus, articular cartilage, and collateral ligament injuries), and treatment decisions
made during the initial surgery (e.g. meniscus and articular cartilage treatments.)
Primary outcome measures will be the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis
Index (WOMAC) pain and stiffness subscales and joint space width measured on weight-bearing
radiographs.
Secondary outcome measures will include the knee related quality of life subscale of the Knee
Injury and Osteoarthritis Score (KOOS) and Kellgren-Lawrence grading from weight-bearing
radiographs.
