ABSTRACT Introduction Anterior cruciate ligament injury is one of the most common sports injuries. There has been a rapid upward trend in its incidence in recent years. If treatment is not carried out early, irreversible impairment of joint stability may occur, even leading to degeneration. Objective Investigate the effects of functional exercise training during rehabilitation on motor function after anterior cruciate ligament surgery. Methods 52 cases were selected and randomly divided into traditional rehabilitation training group (n=20) and exercise rehabilitation training group (n=15). The first group had the affected limb fixed in the fully extended position for one week, performing ankle flexion and extension activities in bed every day. The rehabilitation program for the second group was based on progressive muscle training. Physical training contents were added to promote rehabilitation and increase the benefits of individual rehabilitation according to each patient’s living and working needs. Results The difference in time to balance in orthostatic position with unipodal support in the rehabilitation group by functional training was less than in the traditional rehabilitation group; the group that received functional exercise training also achieved a greater distance in the jump. Conclusion Functional exercise training is effective and safe in promoting muscle strength, range of motion, joint stability, proprioception, balance, and lower limb stability. The presented protocol demonstrated improved rehabilitation effectiveness in a shorter rehabilitation period. Evidence Level II; Therapeutic Studies – Investigating the results.
