Exercises should be light intensity (<50% of 1-RM) high repetitions (15-20) for 3 or more sets with less than 60 seconds of rest, 2-3 times weekly with 48 hours rest between sessions to target type 1 atrophied muscle fibers, due to arthrogenic inhibition[14].

Diagnostic accuracy of handheld dynamometry and 1-repetition-maximum tests for identifying meaningful quadriceps strength asymmetries. endobj endobj Age, gender, quadriceps strength and hop test performance are the most important factors affecting the achievement of a patient-acceptable symptom state after ACL reconstruction. In young patients with high functional demands, return to sports is allowed no earlier than 912 months after they have undergone a thorough rehabilitation programme, but it is known to be associated with secondary stiffness. Evidence-based recommendations for the management of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture. The test batteries in the current literature show high variability and a lack of essential components necessary for RTS, suggesting a disconnect between recommended guidelines and clinical practice.

Sixty-two per cent of patients who had ACL surgery returned to their previous level of sport at 5 years after ACL reconstruction, and the subgroups that did not return to sport because of fear of re-injury and because of an unstable knee found that the difference in knee outcome scores between these 3 groups were statistically significant. %PDF-1.5 % w.99@nFb[x(A[ SjU-4~*=2m]ri&C|@-E/PueJdk$/brwsOo99" S6r*R1i@&WjK9y@{8p5$4rRCm@uM,2RBrmlLf>=+X4!["R)ju(y[J@u"ZI,Kx{;ZjF* W$[me endobj <> Journal of orthopaedic research : official publication of the Orthopaedic Research Society.
