Knee Extension Rate of Torque Development Deficit Is Not Captured by Standard Functional Performance Measures Post-Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction
Background
Criteria for full recovery following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACL-R) include the ability to achieve >90% limb symmetry in maximal quadriceps strength (QI) and functional hop tests. Additionally, knee extension rate of torque development (RTD) is an important performance metric post-ACL-R. [..] READ MORE
