In this study, we used TRAK, a web-based tool that has been developed to support knee rehabilitation, which provides individually tailored exercise programs with videos, instructions and progress logs for each exercise, relevant health information and a contact option that allows a patient to email a physiotherapist for additional support.  The aim of this study was to evaluate the acceptability of TRAK-based blended intervention in post ACL reconstruction rehabilitation.


 Participants were asked to use TRAK alongside face-to-face physiotherapy for 16 weeks.  17 individuals used TRAK for 16 weeks and were available for interview.  The six main themes identified from patients were: the experience of TRAK rehabilitation, personal characteristics for engagement, strengths and weaknesses of the intervention, TRAK in the future and attitudes to digital healthcare.  The main themes from the physiotherapist interviews were: potential benefits, availability of resources and service organization to support use of TRAK.


 TRAK was found to be an acceptable method of delivering ACL rehabilitation alongside face-to-face physiotherapy.  Patients reported that TRAK, specifically the videos, increased their confidence and motivation with their rehabilitation.  They identified ways in which TRAK could be developed in the future to meet technological expectations and further support rehabilitation.  Organization of care to support integration of digital exercise interventions such as TRAK into a blended approach to rehabilitation is required.
