data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading4551_e49d39-28\">Every year around 3% of amateur athletes\u00a0 injure their ACL, for professional athletes this can be as high as 15%. Pivoting sports such as football have the highest incidence of ACL injuries followed by winter sports like skiing. This is due to the fact that a\u00a0cut-and-plant movement is the typical mechanism that causes the ACL to tear, this being a sudden change in direction or speed with the foot firmly planted. Rapid deceleration moments, including those that also involve planting the affected leg to cut and change direction, have also been linked to ACL injuries, as well as landing from a jump, pivoting, twisting, and direct impact to the front of the tibia.<br><br>Injuries to the ACL can range from mild injury e.g. a sprain of the ligament to a full tear of the ligament. Maybe most surprisingly females are 5 times more likely to sustain an ACL injury than their male counterparts. ACL injuries are relatively common injuries that we see in clinic at Movement perfected. Our job is\u00a0 to either prevent and ACL injury through exercise or to\u00a0 rehabilitate post injury or surgery.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading4551_6b5fd2-cf, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading4551_6b5fd2-cf[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading4551_6b5fd2-cf\"]{font-size:16px;font-style:normal;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading4551_6b5fd2-cf mark.kt-highlight, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading4551_6b5fd2-cf[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading4551_6b5fd2-cf\"] mark.kt-highlight{font-style:normal;color:#f76a0c;-webkit-box-decoration-break:clone;box-decoration-break:clone;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading4551_6b5fd2-cf img.kb-inline-image, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading4551_6b5fd2-cf[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading4551_6b5fd2-cf\"] img.kb-inline-image{width:150px;vertical-align:baseline;}<\/style>\n<h3 class=\"kt-adv-heading4551_6b5fd2-cf wp-block-kadence-advancedheading\" data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading4551_6b5fd2-cf\"><strong><strong>ANATOMY OF THE ACL<\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading4551_1509cc-bc, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading4551_1509cc-bc[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading4551_1509cc-bc\"]{font-size:16px;font-style:normal;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading4551_1509cc-bc mark.kt-highlight, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading4551_1509cc-bc[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading4551_1509cc-bc\"] mark.kt-highlight{font-style:normal;color:#f76a0c;-webkit-box-decoration-break:clone;box-decoration-break:clone;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading4551_1509cc-bc img.kb-inline-image, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading4551_1509cc-bc[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading4551_1509cc-bc\"] img.kb-inline-image{width:150px;vertical-align:baseline;}<\/style>\n<p class=\"kt-adv-heading4551_1509cc-bc wp-block-kadence-advancedheading has-theme-palette-10-color has-text-color\" data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading4551_1509cc-bc\">The anterior cruciate ligament connects the thigh bone (femur) to the shin bone (tibia) and crosses in front of the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL). The ACL provides approximately 85% of the total restraining force of anterior translation. It also prevents excessive tibial medial and lateral rotation, as well as varus and valgus stresses.<br>\u00a0<br>The ACL\u2019s primary role is proprioceptive in function due to the presence of mechanoreceptors in the ligaments- due to this the ACL injury is therefore regarded as a neurophysiological dysfunction and not as a simple peripheral musculoskeletal injury. As a consequence of its complex role in the kinematics of the knee, when an ACL injury occurs there are both clinical signs and subjective instability and therefore a comprehensive rehabilitation program is needed.<\/p>\n\n\n<style>.kadence-column4551_9e5dae-72 >

rehabilitation of the ACL are:\u00a0<br>&#8211; Gain full ROM of the knee<br>&#8211; Repair muscle strength and proprioception<br>&#8211; Gain good functional stability<br>&#8211; Reach the best possible functional level (walking, running, jumping\u2026)<br>&#8211; Decrease the risk for re-injury<br>&#8211; (Return to sport)<br><br>A study by Grindem at al ( 2016) showed that\u00a0with every one percent point increase in strength symmetry between the injured and non inujred leg, there is a\u00a0 3 % reduction in\u00a0 reinjury rate. Similarly the same principle applies\u00a0 when there is\u00a0 more time between surgery and returning to sport after an ACL repair- most of the evidence points to returning to sport after 12 months of a comprehnsive rehabiliatiion plan to avoid re injury or re rupture of the ACL.\u00a0<br><br><a href=\"https:\/\/movement-perfected.au1.cliniko.com\/bookings\">Click here to book appointment<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading4551_257fdc-01, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading4551_257fdc-01[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading4551_257fdc-01\"]{font-size:16px;font-style:normal;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading4551_257fdc-01 mark.kt-highlight, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading4551_257fdc-01[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading4551_257fdc-01\"] mark.kt-highlight{font-style:normal;color:#f76a0c;-webkit-box-decoration-break:clone;box-decoration-break:clone;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading4551_257fdc-01 img.kb-inline-image, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading4551_257fdc-01[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading4551_257fdc-01\"] img.kb-inline-image{width:150px;vertical-align:baseline;}<\/style>\n<h3 class=\"kt-adv-heading4551_257fdc-01 wp-block-kadence-advancedheading\" data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading4551_257fdc-01\"><strong><strong><strong>Return to sport testing<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading4551_cb08a1-a3, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading4551_cb08a1-a3[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading4551_cb08a1-a3\"]{font-size:16px;font-style:normal;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading4551_cb08a1-a3 mark.kt-highlight, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading4551_cb08a1-a3[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading4551_cb08a1-a3\"] mark.kt-highlight{font-style:normal;color:#f76a0c;-webkit-box-decoration-break:clone;box-decoration-break:clone;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading4551_cb08a1-a3 img.kb-inline-image, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading4551_cb08a1-a3[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading4551_cb08a1-a3\"] img.kb-inline-image{width:150px;vertical-align:baseline;}<\/style>\n<p class=\"kt-adv-heading4551_cb08a1-a3 wp-block-kadence-advancedheading has-theme-palette-10-color has-text-color\" data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading4551_cb08a1-a3\"><br>Before you return to your sport we at\u00a0 Movement Perfected would test the injured knee to ensure it has the required stability to return to sport as safely as possible.<br><br>These tests include:<br><br>&#8211; 1 Rep Max<br>The one-repetition maximum strength test (1RM), used to measure dynamic knee extension strength executed in an extensor chair,<br><br>&#8211; Single leg hop<br>In this test, the aim is to jump as far as possible on a single leg, without losing balance and landing firmly.

In simple terms, during an ACL repair part of your tendon ( either from the hamstrings or quadriceps) is taken to replace a ligament. Now the\u00a0give away here is that we are expecting a tendon ( which connects muscle to bone) to act as a ligament ( a structure which connects two bones together).\u00a0 Through this surgery, we are expecting the tissue to totally change it\u2019s function- therefore the two main things this requires for a successful outcome\u00a0is 1)\u00a0<strong>TIME<\/strong>\u00a0and 2)<strong>\u00a0GRADUAL LOADING.\u00a0<\/strong><br><br>It is important to note that without the graft being placed under some stress the process of the tendon becoming ligamentous in properties, known as ligamentization, would not occur.\u00a0<br><br>The entire ACL rehabilitation process is unique to each person but overwhelmingly this is what physiotherapy seeks to address during the process.\u00a0<br><br>&#8211; Establishing symmetrical strength and range of motion<br>&#8211; Progression to increased weight-bearing activitie<br>&#8211; A gait\/run progression<br>&#8211; Incorporation of plyometrics<br>&#8211; Gradual introduction of sport specific activities<br>&#8211; Inclusion of reactive activities<br><br>A study by Failla et al 2016 showed significantly improved outcomes 2 years after ACL reconstruction surgery in a group who underwent pre-operative rehabilitation as compared to a group receiving similar post-operative rehabilitation only.\u00a0 These improved outcomes included both returning to pre-injury level of sports as well as patient-reported outcomes measures of knee function<br><br><br>A recent study has highlighted that very often ACL injuries are under treated post an ACL repair.\u00a0 An emerging realisation is evident that individuals and athletes may be overtreated with ACL surgery, but undertreated when it comes to rehabilitation. \u2018Undertreated\u2019 is defined as either not enough rehabilitative input ( length of time)\u00a0 or where the rehabilitation process has not been challenging enough to allow for full recovery.\u00a0<br><br>This is why at Movement Perfected we follow rehabilitation protocols that follow evidence-based guidelines. This involves reccommneding to our clients\u00a0 more than 6\u00a0 months\u2019 rehabilitation, including agility and landing exercises and a structured return to sport. We work closely with our consultants to ensure that physiotherapy intervention starts immediately post operatively.\u00a0<br><br>There is a common mis conception that it is the surgery that will get an individual back to playing sport, but this isn\u2019t the case- surgery will fix the anatomical structural damage but it is the rehabilitation afterwards that will get you back playing or participating in your sport.\u00a0<br><br>So, the rehabilitation phase is crucial to success. The rehabilitation of ACL deficient and ACL reconstructed knees should be the same. The challenge is, it seems, that some individuals with ACL deficiency do not put the same level of effort or commitment into rehabilitation as they would following a reconstruction. If an individual with an ACL deficient knee is consistently showing signs of instability, then they may need to explore surgical management to achieve their goals.<br><br>Management of all ACL injuries should involve criteria-based, not time-based, rehabilitation where the individual has to achieve certain markers before progressing onto the next stage. Historically, time-based markers determined when the patient could move onto the next phase; however, owing to variables in everyone\u2019s ability, their level of dedication to rehabilitation, their progress will vary and may not be time dependent. However, time does need to be considered with regards to physiological healing processes, tissues repair and strength, ossification post-surgery, etc.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Every year around 3% of amateur athletes\u00a0 injure their ACL, for professional athletes this can be as high as 15%.
