Summary

The quantification of the strength-producing capacity of the knee joint muscles by isokinetic measurement is one of the most widely used tools for monitoring and deciding whether to return to sport after ACL reconstruction. However, the isokinetic evaluation performed in current practice does not exploit all the measures offered by this exploration technique, which can lead to errors in analysis and interpretation of the results and underestimate its ability to predict a return to sport under optimal conditions. Recently, more complete analysis models than those currently in use and integrating the moment-angle relationship have thus proposed the use of functional ratios sweeping the whole amplitude of the knee joint. Baumgart proposed an analysis of the variation of isokinetic force moments at each angle after ligamentoplasty. This approach seems to be the future of isokinetic performance analyses, but for the moment this has only been used in pathological populations and on small numbers of patients (less than 40). There are therefore no reference values in healthy subjects.
