Predicting the Recovery of Isokinetic Knee Strength 6 Months After Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction
Several factors including preoperative isokinetic strength, treatment of meniscal injuries, left vs. right side and graft site were found to predict recovery of ≥85% LSI in knee extension and flexion strength. Despite the numerous factors that were analyzed, the predictive power was moderate (c-statistic = 0.716), indicating there were other nonincluded factors that significantly influence strength performance at 6 months postoperatively.
