Active Noise-Cancelling Headphones Reduce Operative Time and Improve Procedural Consistency in ACL Reconstruction l

Conditions: Anterior Cruciate Ligament Rupture, Active Noise Cancelling, Operation Time

Sex: All

Ages: 18 Years – 50 Years

Healthy volunteers: No

Phase: NA

Enrollment: 54

Sponsor: Fatih Sultan Mehmet Training and Research Hospital

Summary

High noise levels generated by arthroscopic equipment may impair intraoperative communication and increase cognitive workload, potentially affecting surgical efficiency. Active noise-cancelling (ANC) systems combined with closed-loop communication may enhance team interaction; however, their clinical impact remains unclear. Purpose of this study is To evaluate the effect of ANC headphones and a closed-loop communication system on operative time and intraoperative team performance during arthroscopic anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria: * Patients who have undergone anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction * Willingness to participate and provide informed consent Exclusion Criteria: * Previous ACL reconstruction
