Early Predictors of Return to Sport After ACL Reconstruction
Description
In this episode, we discuss early objective predictors of return to sport following ACL reconstruction. This conversation is particularly relevant for sports medicine fellows, physical therapists, athletic trainers, and orthopedic surgeons.
We explore a recent study focusing on the importance of early postoperative testing. Key points include the role of extension, strength, hop testing, and stability in predicting return to sport times.
Listeners will gain valuable insights into the significance of early rehabilitation metrics, the impact of objective testing on clinical decisions, and practical advice for improving patient outcomes. Tune in to learn how early intervention can lead to faster and more effective recovery for athletes after ACL surgery.
