Compared two groups of patients after discharge for the following: compliance behavior of functional rehabilitation exercise and follow up visits, knee extension activities and flexion degree of knee joint function rehabilitation exercise using lysholm score. Results: There are statistically significant differences between the two groups in the compliance of rehabilitation exercises at 6 and 24 weeks (P<0.05). The lysholm score at 24 weeks of knee rehabilitation exercise in the observation group is better than the control group (P<0.001). Conclusion: The implementation of continuous nursing care for patients with arthroscopic anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction has a significant role in promoting the recovery of knee joint function, improve their quality of life.
