Neuromuscular response to competing ACL surgeries
ABSTRACT The objective of the parent ancillary project is to leverage patients enrolled in the BEAR-MOON Trial to determine whether bridge-enhanced anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) restoration (BEAR) conserves neuromuscular and kinematic function better than the standard of care, ACL reconstruction. The objective of the proposed supplement is to augment the generalizability and statistical power of the ancillary project by recruiting BEAR-MOON Trial patients from a second Trial site based in Minnesota. Whereas ACLR requires removal of the injured ligament and the bony insertion sites to implant a tendon graft, BEAR uses a scaffold to promote healing of the injured ACL. Therefore, the ACL…
