Introduction The decision regarding when to return to sport after an anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) is an important one. Using a variety of subjective and objective parameters, various attempts have been made to determine an optimal timeline for a return to sport after ACLR, but none have been validated. The aim of the present stu...

The purpose of this study was to evaluate improvements in functional performance through the use of the Limb Symmetry Index of Single and Triple Hop tests between 12 and 52 weeks after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction, and to compare these values with usual time-based and performance-based criteria used during the return to sport continuum...
Article
Existing return to play (RTP) assessments have not demonstrated the ability to decrease risk of subsequent anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury after reconstruction (ACLR). RTP criteria are standardized and do not simulate the physical and cognitive activity required by the practice of sport. Most RTP criteria do not include an ecological approa...

Background: Follow-up care including rehabilitation therapy after isolated meniscal repair remains to be standardised. Thus, no standard criteria are available for the return to running (RTR) or return to sport (RTS). The objective of this study was to identify criteria for RTR and RTS after isolated meniscal repair, based on a review of the liter...

An anterior cruciate ligament tear is a serious injury that carries substantial consequences. It is essential to individualize their care management with a model optimizing goal-oriented rehabilitation. Clinicians’ challenge is to link the patient’s goal for returning to sport and the capacities targeted by the rehabilitation. Indeed, not all activ...

Background: The test battery classically used for return-to-sport (RTS) decision-making after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction (ACLR) may not be sufficient, as it does not include a qualitative analysis of movement. Therefore, the Landing Error Scoring System (LESS) scale was adapted to a primary functional test in the typical RTS t...

After anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction, the return to sport is a continuum including three elements: Return to participation, Return to sport (without restriction but no competition) and Return to performance (in competition). Running is an activity producing low ACL strains and is a basic element for most sports activities. So, the...

Après une reconstruction chirurgicale du ligament croisé antérieur, le patient souhaitant reprendre un sport pivot/contact doit suivre un continuum du retour du sport. Tout au long de cette progression, la charge de travail ainsi que les contraintes articulaires sont majorées, augmentant ainsi le risque de blessures. Il est donc primordial de se ré...

Objective A criterion of the anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) success is the return to sport at the same level as before surgery. Return to sport (RtS) decision seems to be a key element in this success: if too early RtS exposes to risk of injury, too late RtS influences the motivation to return to the same level. Functional tests (...

Question
Criteria of return to light activities (return to a sedentary job, straight-ahead running) uses commonly a timeline (12-16 weeks postoperatively)?
You use functional test to give your agreement to return to light activities? (Hop tests?)
Question
Functional assessment of patients undergoing ACL reconstruction: you use Cincinnati Knee Rating system, IKDC or SANE (single assessment numeric evaluation), or other?
