Design and evaluation of comprehensive rehabilitation plan for functional recovery of tennis players’ knee joint injuries

Tennis is a popular game among people of all ethnicities. During the game, players work their lower limbs intensively, which leads to their knee joints getting very painful and injured. Many injuries can be sustained during play, including ligament sprains, tears to the meniscus, and pains to the patellar tendon due to sudden stops, changes of direction, and twist running. To understand the mechanics of these injuries, there is an obligatory use of biomechanical techniques that allow one to determine the exact loads and movements that lead to these injuries. The study is to evaluate the efficiency of the complex rehabilitation record aimed at restoring the functions of the injured knee joints in tennis players. One hundred forty-six tennis players with a past of knee joint troubles were included. The subjects were separated into two groups: Group A prescribed a rehabilitation program, while Group B underwent standard treatment. To determine the result of the rehabilitation program on the participants’ physical state, data such as joint angles, gait analysis, and force measurements were collected. The treatment program included rehabilitation approaches, such as active range of motion, flexibility exercises, muscle balance, static and dynamic strength training, and others. With respect to statistical analysis, the obtained data were tested by ANOVA, t-tests, logistic regression and correlation to assess functional outcome variances within and among the groups. Thus, the data were analyzed using SPSS. In functional outcomes, between Group A and Group B, the treatment outcome was significantly improved due to the intensive comprehensive rehabilitation program. Long-term recovery satisfaction among the athletes improved with time, confirming the benefits of a well-structured rehabilitation provision. The current research report offers substantial perspectives on the improvement of recovery programs drawn for tennis players. It highlights the importance of a tailored sports rehabilitation program in optimizing performance and minimizing the risk of injuries recurring.

Abstract

Tennis is a popular game among people of all ethnicities. During the game, players work their lower limbs intensively, which leads to their knee joints getting very painful and injured. Many injuries can be sustained during play, including ligament sprains, tears to the meniscus, and pains to the patellar tendon due to sudden stops, changes of direction, and twist running. To understand the mechanics of these injuries, there is an obligatory use of biomechanical techniques that allow one to determine the exact loads and movements that lead to these injuries. The study is to evaluate the efficiency of the complex rehabilitation record aimed at restoring the functions of the injured knee joints in tennis players. One hundred forty-six tennis players with a past of knee joint troubles were included. The subjects were separated into two groups: Group A prescribed a rehabilitation program, while Group B underwent standard treatment. To determine the result of the rehabilitation program on the participants’ physical state, data such as joint angles, gait analysis, and force measurements were collected. The treatment program included rehabilitation approaches, such as active range of motion, flexibility exercises, muscle balance, static and dynamic strength training, and others. With respect to statistical analysis, the obtained data were tested by ANOVA, t-tests, logistic regression and correlation to assess functional outcome variances within and among the groups. Thus, the data were analyzed using SPSS. In functional outcomes, between Group A and Group B, the treatment outcome was significantly improved due to the intensive comprehensive rehabilitation program. Long-term recovery satisfaction among the athletes improved with time, confirming the benefits of a well-structured rehabilitation provision. The current research report offers substantial perspectives on the improvement of recovery programs drawn for tennis players. It highlights the importance of a tailored sports rehabilitation program in optimizing performance and minimizing the risk of injuries recurring.
