To Investigate the Effect of PEMF for Pateitns After Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction With Hamstring Autograft

Pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) therapy is an emerging modality for the treatment of musculoskeletal disorders. Time-varying magnetic pulses are generated by passing an electrical current through a coil. PEMF has been shown to be effective in vitro and in vivo studies for tissue repair and accelerating muscle regeneration. In each treatment, you need to put the reconstructed limb into the machine for 10 minutes.

In this study the placebo group uses the same PEMF machine, but it does not generate any electrical current that have treatment effect. As the active PEMF device does not produce heat or cause any sensation to the tissue, participants are blinded to the treatment. In each treatment, you need to put the reconstructed limb into the machine for 10 minutes.
