Anterior Cruciate Ligament Injury Clinical Trial
Official title:
Mechanical Perturbation Training for ACL Injury Prevention
A prospective trial will be used to evaluate the efficacy of prophylactic mechanical perturbation training program. 24 female athletes who are regular participants in activities that involve cutting, pivoting, jumping, and lateral movements prior to injury who range in age from 15-30 year are eligible. Using a prospective risk stratification design, female athletes with knee abduction moment (KAM) > 25.25 Nm from drop jump motion analysis will be classified as high KAM and will receive 12 sessions of mechanically-driven perturbation training and female athletes with KAM < 25.25 Nm from drop jump motion analysis will be classified as normal KAM and only participate in baseline performance testing, followed 6 weeks later by another session of drop jump motion analysis and performance testing.
