Motor imagery (MI) reported positive effects in some musculoskeletal rehabilitation processes. The main objective of this study was to analyze the effectiveness of MI interventions after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. A systematic review was conducted from November 2018 to December 2019 in PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, The Cochrane Library, and Physiotherapy Evidence Database (PEDro).

- Telerehabilitation shows promise in enhancing recovery for orthopedic post-surgery patients, offering an alternative to traditional physiotherapy.
- This systematic review evaluates the effectiveness of telerehabilitation, as well as its design and comparability to conventional methods, particularly focusing on knee and hip surgeries.
- The findings reveal varying levels of evidence, with a notable percentage of studies showing strong results for knee and hip replacements while the upper limb interventions generally lacked robust evidence.
Background Telerehabilitation promises to improve quality, increase patient access and reduce costs in health care. Physiotherapy with exercises is generally recommended to restore function after surgery in patients with chronic subacromial syndrome. Relatively few studies have investigated the feasibility of telerehabilitation interventions in musculoskeletal and orthopaedic disorders.
