Anterior Cruciate Ligament Recovery With Virtual Psychological Intervention

Description

The goal of this parallel arm prospective randomized control trial study is to compare outcomes in Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction (ACLR) Surgery patients after exposure to a virtual psychological intervention (VPI) versus standard care. The main question the investigators are asking is if virtual administration of psychological CBT modules will be an accessible and convenient vehicle to improve ACLR outcomes. Participants will be placed either into a treatment group receiving virtual modules of cognitive behavioral therapy in addition to standard of care ACLR surgery or the control group receiving only the standard of care ACLR surgery. The investigators hypothesize that ACLR patients in the VPI cohort will have improved return to sport and post operative outcomes compared to controls.
