Pre-operative activity level and a sport or recreation injury mechanism are associated with 2-year clinical outcome after proximal hamstring tendon repair
To investigate the association between patient-related, injury and surgical, and post-operative factors with 2-year clinical outcomes and satisfaction after proximal hamstring repair.
Key Findings:
Significant improvement in clinical outcomes from baseline to 2 years post-surgery.
Certain patient demographics and injury characteristics were associated with better outcomes and satisfaction.
Interpretation:
The study highlights the importance of pre-operative factors in predicting post-operative satisfaction and clinical outcomes after proximal hamstring repair.
Limitations:
Small sample size may limit generalizability.
Lack of long-term follow-up beyond 2 years.
Conclusion:
Understanding the factors influencing outcomes can enhance pre-operative patient education and expectation management.
