Strength Asymmetry and Landing Mechanics at Return to Sport after Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction

Key Points

Key points are not available for this paper at this time.

Abstract

At the time of return to sport, individuals after ACL reconstruction with weaker QF demonstrate altered landing patterns. Conversely, those with nearly symmetrical QF strength demonstrate landing patterns similar to uninjured individuals. Consideration of an objective QF strength measure may aid clinical decision making to optimize sports participation after ACL reconstruction.
