Return to sports bridge program improves outcomes, decreases ipsilateral knee re-injury and contralateral knee injury rates post-ACL reconstruction.

摘要: To present the results of a return to sports bridge program designed reduce knee injuries following ACL reconstruction and physical therapy. One hundred fifty (male = 83, female = 67) patients participated in whole body neuromuscular control, progressive resistance strength agility training program. Post-program testing included functional movement form, dynamic stability, lower extremity power, agility, skill assessments. Participants completed Knee Outcome Survey–Sports Activity Scale (KOS-SAS) before after initiation. Pre-participation scores were re-estimated completion. Global rating KOS-SAS score at entry was 75 ± 13. global calculated 91.0 ± 9.8 90.9 ± 9.7, respectively (p < 0.0001). re-estimates completion 54.5 ± 23.3 57.3 ± 18.5, respectively. The approximately 20% pre-program (p < 0.0001) observed suggests that subjects had inaccurately high readiness perceptions entry. Perceived overall activity function ratings improved from 2.9 ± 0.6 (abnormal) 1.3 ± 0.5 (normal) Most returned back or above their pre-injury performance skill/performance level (84%, 126/150). By 6.8 ± 3.2 years (range = 2–13 years) post-surgery, ten sustained an ipsilateral re-injury contralateral injury (6.7%). 2.7% non-contact 1.3% rates significantly than those cited in previous reports. Supplementing primary standard therapy with prior release unrestricted effective improving patient outcomes decreasing rates. II.
