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. 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 1c, Fig. endobj Following the first 6 weeks of acute management after ACL reconstruction, creating a long-term rehabilitation plan can be challenging for physiotherapists. %PDF-1.7 % Available from: Monday Academic Session - Luke O'Brien - Rehabilitation.

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].

Eighty-three per cent of elite athletes return to preinjury sport after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction: a systematic review with meta-analysis of return to sport rates, graft rupture rates and performance outcomes. The following is a suggested weekly plan for an athlete requires strong lower body as the top priority, cardiovascular fitness, core stability and upper body strength: Accordingly, the plan includes 4 lower body strengthening sessions, 2 cardio sessions, 2 pool sessions, 2 core sessions, 2 upper body strengthening sessions. The Vail Sport Test, originally described by Hagerman and Atkins, 34 is a functional assessment to return to alpine skiing and has been used as a criterion to return to sport, as previously described in the literature. % The findings indicate that patients are not fully rehabilitated 11months after ACL reconstruction, and it is suggested that functional testing should be performed both under non-fatigued and fatigued test conditions.

Moving from endurance to strength training can start when the athlete shows[14]: Strength is the ability to exert force/torque at a specific speed. Predicting outcomes and time-frames, using your clinical experience and clinical reasoning skills, for each goal is also part of your role. Forty-eight participants who underwent ACL-R.
