dc.description.abstract | BACKGROUND: Dynamic knee stability strategies of anterior cruciate ligament deficient (ACL)
subjects have previously been reported in gait analysis studies. Few studies have investigated
these strategies during a more strenuous sport related activity such as a single leg hop. Joint
stiffness may be an important functional performance parameter, to our knowledge no one
have looked into knee joint stiffness after an ACL injury. Furthermore, too few studies have
examined changes in dynamic knee stability strategies after an ACL injury and a specific
rehabilitation program.
OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to elucidate different movement patterns, in the
lower extremity, and knee joint stiffness of injured compared to uninjured side, during
landing after a single leg hop in ACL injured subjects classified as non-copers, before and
after a 20 session rehabilitation program. | en |
