Abstract
Clinical Scenario: There are many disparities within healthcare, specifically in relation to socioeconomic status, leading to delay of care and treatment. Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) ruptures are highly prevalent and can lead to secondary complications if treatment is delayed. Public health insurance can contribute to the delay of care in patients recovering from Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction (ACLR).
Clinical Question: How does public insurance and socioeconomic status (SES) affect the delay of care for patients with post-operative ACL reconstruction?
Clinical Bottom Line: There is moderate to strong evidence supporting the correlation between delay of care in ACLR and public insurance/lower socioeconomic status patients.
Strength of Recommendation: Based on the JBI for Qualitative Research, all studies are appropriate and should be used in this critically appraised topic.
