| Description: |
Deborah A. Kowalchuk, B.A., Christopher D. Harner, MD, Freddie H. Fu, MD and James J. Irrgang, PhD, had a lead article in the May 2009 issue of Arthroscopy: The Journal of Arthroscopic and Related Surgery. Their article, “Prediction of Patient-Reported Outcome After Single-Bundle Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction”, is a study to identify preoperative and intraoperative factors that predict patient-oriented outcome as measured by the International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) Subjective Knee Form after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. Their conclusion was that lower patient-reported outcome after ACL reconstruction was strongly associated with obesity, smoking, and severe chondrosis at the time of surgery. |
