Effect Analysis of Early Rehabilitation Therapy Combined With Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation on Postoperative Rehabilitation of Sports Knee Injury.

OBJECTIVE

To analyze the effectiveness of combined early rehabilitation therapy and repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) in the postoperative rehabilitation of patients with sports knee injuries (SKIs).

METHODS

A total of 62 SKI patients from June 2021 to June 2022 were randomly selected by computer and divided into group A (31 cases, early rehabilitation therapy) and group B (31 cases, early rehabilitation therapy + rTMS) by numbered envelope method. The effects of the 2 groups were compared.

RESULTS

After treatment, the pain frequency and pain intensity in group B were lower than in group A, whereas the completion of knee movements without significant pain, the degree of knee swelling, and the impact of the knee on activities were higher in group B than in group A; the Lysholm score and inflammatory factor indicators in group B were superior to those in group A (all P <0.05).

CONCLUSION

The combination of early rehabilitation therapy and rTMS in postoperative rehabilitation of SKI patients has better effects on knee joint function and inflammation.
