No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Quantify differences in quadriceps function and gait biomechanics in individuals within 2 years of ACL reconstruction compared to a healthy comparison group and establish the feasibility of conducting a progressive strengthening program to improve clinical and patient-oriented outcomes in individuals who are within 2 years of ACL reconstruction

Conditions

  • ACL Tears

Interventions

OTHER

Progressive strengthening program

The progressive strengthening program will be performed for 3 weeks and emphasize development of strength and power. Feasibility will be established if we can recruit up to 8 participants and retain at least 80% over the 3 week intervention program. We will determine effect sizes for changes outcome measures.
