Using the Single-Leg Hop Test to Determine Knee Extension Strength After Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction
Although the relationship between the single-leg hop test and knee extension strength was moderate, this relationship was imprecise, and predicting strength based on the single-leg hop test resulted in a clinically meaningful amount of error. Based on study findings, it is unlikely that the single-leg hop test provides clinical utility if the goal is to assess knee extension strength.
