Functional tests should be accentuated more in the decision
Eitzen, Ingrid; Moksnes, Håvard; Snyder-Mackler, Lynn; Engebretsen, Lars; Risberg, May Arna (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2010-04-22)A high pre-injury activity level, the desire of the patient to continue pivoting sports and fear of future give-way episodes are considered the most significant factors affecting the decision to perform anterior cruciate ... -
How does a combined preoperative and postoperative rehabilitation programme influence the outcome of ACL reconstruction 2 years after surgery?: a comparison between patients in the Delaware-Oslo ACL Cohort and the Norwegian National Knee Ligament Registry
Grindem, Hege; Granan, Lars-Petter; Risberg, May Arna; Engebretsen, Lars; Snyder-Mackler, Lynn; Eitzen, Ingrid (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014-10-28)Background: Preoperative knee function is associated with successful postoperative outcome after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR). However, there are few longer term studies of patients who underwent ... -
Inter- and intrarater reliability of four single-legged hop tests and isokinetic muscle torque measurements in children
Johnsen, Marianne Bakke; Eitzen, Ingrid; Moksnes, Håvard; Risberg, May Arna (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013-11-15)Purpose: Single-legged hop tests and isokinetic muscle torque are common outcome measures in the evaluation of knee function. The reliability of the single-legged hop tests in children has not been documented. The aim was ... -
No effects of a 12-week supervised exercise therapy program on gait in patients with mild tomoderate osteoarthritis: a secondary analysis of a randomized trial
Eitzen, Ingrid; Fernandes, Linda Maria; Nordsletten, Lars; Risberg, May Arna (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015-03-05)Background: It is unknown whether gait biomechanics in hip osteoarthritis patients with mild to moderate symptoms change following exercise therapy interventions. The aim of the present study was to compare stance phase ... -
A progressive 5-week exercise therapy program leads to significant improvement in knee function early after anterior cruciate ligament injury
Eitzen, Ingrid; Moksnes, Håvard; Snyder-Mackler, Lynn; Risberg, May Arna (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2010-11)STUDY DESIGN: Prospective cohort study without a control group. OBJECTIVES: Firstly, to present our 5-week progressive exercise therapy program in the early stage after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury. Secondly, ... -
Quantifying quadriceps muscle strength in patients with ACL injury, focal cartilage lesions, and degenerative meniscus tears: differences and clinical implications
Eitzen, Ingrid; Grindem, Hege; Nilstad, Agnethe; Moksnes, Håvard; Risberg, May Arna (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016-10-11)Background: Reduced quadriceps strength influences knee function and increases the risk of knee osteoarthritis. Thus, it is of significant clinical relevance to precisely quantify strength deficits in patients with knee ... -
Sagittal plane gait characteristics in hip osteoarthritis patients with mild to moderate symptoms compared to healthy controls: a cross-sectional study
Eitzen, Ingrid; Fernandes, Linda; Nordsletten, Lars; Risberg, May Arna (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012-12-20)Background Existent biomechanical studies on hip osteoarthritic gait have primarily focused on the end stage of disease. Consequently, there is no clear consensus on which specific gait parameters are of most relevance ...
