An ACL injury limits your ability to enjoy an
active, athletic lifestyle. ACL repair surgery
represents the first major step to returning
to normal activity. However, you will have
to overcome additional hurdles during your
rehabilitation process.
Typically, healing and rehabilitation requires
a long, strenuous process – one focused
on controlling pain and swelling, as well as
stabilizing your joint and restoring its normal
range of motion.
Hindering your rehabilitation progress is a
common condition called quadriceps (quad)
atrophy, which weakens your leg muscles,
affecting your gait and possibly leading to
longer rehabilitation.

Quadriceps atrophy is the
shrinking or weakening of
your thigh muscles after an
injury, often lasting up to 2
years.

• Disuse before and after surgery
• Fluid buildup in joint from swelling
• Surgical access to knee capsule

• Prevents you from participating in
everyday sports and activities
• Alters your walking gait
• Lengthens your rehabilitation time
• Reduces your overall satisfaction
Traditional rehabilitation practices included
weekly or biweekly physical therapy
appointments, focused on stretching/strength
exercises and, occasionally, muscle stimulation.
The intent is for the muscle to relearn how to fire
before building up lost strength.
While beneficial in your overall rehabilitation, this
approach is too infrequent and inconsistent to
prevent significant short term muscle atrophy.

like a proFeSSioNal aThleTe
ACL injuries are frequent in many sports, and
especially among elite athletes. So, how do they
salvage their careers and return to the field
more quickly than the average patient? Elite and
professional athletes benefit from a more intense
physical therapy regimen that often includes
frequent muscle stimulation.
Neuro Muscular Electrical Stimulation (NMES)
technology has been shown to be highly effective
at exciting or "jump-starting" atrophied muscles.
The technology works by safely sending an electric
current to weakened muscles through electrodes
on your skin, overriding and reinstating the
neurological control lost through quad atrophy.
With frequent administration, this stimulation may
lead to reduced muscle loss and shortened time in
rehab.

Introducing a new and effective solution that safely
and comfortably delivers the NMES technology of
elite athletes to every patient at home.
CYMediCa Qb1:
NeXT GeNeraTioN rehab
The QB1 represents a truly innovative approach
to bringing professional-level ACL rehabilitation
to you - incorporating revolutionary, next-
generation NMES technology with standard
postoperative bracing.
The result? You may improve your quadriceps
strength markedly faster after ACL surgery and
reduce your overall rehabilitation time – getting
you back to your active life faster.
