Great Research Article: Assessing the Effect of ACLR on Future Sports Participation, Patient Reported Outcomes and Physical Function
Effect of Anterior Cruciate Ligament Rupture on Physical Activity, Sports Participation, Patient-Reported Health Outcomes, and Physical Function in Young Female Athletes
This research article, from the American Journal of Sports Medicine, looks at the effect of ACL reconstruction on future sports participation, patient reported outcomes, and physical function in female athletes.
The study was conducted on a cohort of 102 female athletes aged 15-23, 51 participants had undergone ACL reconstruction within the previous 1-2 years and 51 had no previous knee injury:
- All participants were fitted with an accelerometer for 13 days that measured their Physical Activity.
- The participants completed patient-reported health outcomes: Tegner activity level, Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS), Knee Self-Efficacy Sale (K-SES), Anterior Cruciate Ligament Return to Sport After Injury scale (ACLRSI), Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia (TSK-11).
- Physical function test: Triple Single-Leg Hop (TSLH) and 1 Leg rise (OLR).
