Summary
The following study has as main objective to evaluate whether the use of I-ONEĀ® therapy can
reduce post-operative pain thanks to the modulation of inflammation in patients with bone
bruise on the knee after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury if applied 15 days before
and 60 days after ACL reconstruction surgery for 4 hours a day compared to a control group
(no-treatment). Both groups will be able to take anti-inflammatory drugs for pain control as
per normal clinical practice.
The secondary objective of the study are: quantify the reduction in the size of the bone
bruise area, improving the level of knee function and the amount of anti-inflammatory drugs
used in the aforementioned patients in the postoperative period compared to a control group.
