Can Knee Extensor Loading Deficits Be Diagnosed using Variables from Force Plates during Squats Post-ACLr?
Vertical GRF alone is not adequate to detect KEM deficits. Additional force plate and two-dimensional position data (COP position and moment arm) can strengthen predictive ability and diagnostic accuracy, supporting translation of these variables into commercial products to enhance clinical assessments.
