A Comparison between Modified Robert Jones Bandage and Intermittent Cold Pack in Arthroscopic Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction: A Prospective Randomized Controlled Trial.

Conclusion: Intermittent cold pack has not demonstrated the benefit of pain reduction or morphine usage when compared to the modified Robert Jones bandage, but it had significantly less knee swelling, a significantly higher patient’s satisfaction and trend to have better functional outcome. We recommend intermittent cold pack for postoperative care in ACLR. PMID: 29911785 [PubMed - in process]
