The COVID rebound effect: Incidence of tendon rupture surgeries in the peripandemic COVID era in a single tertiary academic institution
A "COVID rebound" of tendon rupture repairs in 2021 from a prolonged period of inactivity during 2020 occurred at a single academic center. As patients return to pre-COVID levels of activity that may be unsuitable to their deconditioned state, healthcare providers should counsel patients appropriately on return to activity or sport following long periods of induced inactivity.
