- Description
This telecast will include lecture, video & live patient demonstration in the rehabilitation of patient following ACL reconstruction. The instructor will provide the evidence for the most effective treatment of ACL Injuries and concomitant pathologies. This course will discuss demonstrate rehabilitation techniques from week 9 to week 26 following surgery. The instructor will discuss how to design a rehab program and a functional progression following ACL surgery.
Modalities such as electrical muscle stimulation, exercise principles, plyometrics, running & agility programs & proprioception training will be discussed.
This live web-telecast will also be available to students who were unable to view the live web-telecast. Participants who view the on-demand web-telecast will be required to demonstrate mastery of the presented materials through completion of an online assessment or test.- Details

- Learning Goals
Upon successful completion of this webinar, the participants will be able to:
- Understand the biomechanics & EMG of various lower extremity exercises
- Develop a functional progression & Design a return to activity program following ACL surgery
- Design an effective and appropriate rehabilitation program based on current clinical and scientific research for the following isolated ACL injury & ACL injury with concomitant injuries.
- Integrate the information presented in this course and demonstrate problem-solving skills.
- Formulate an appropriate time frame to return to sports or activities following ACL surgery based on scientific evidence.
- Behavioral Objectives
- Upon completion of the course, the participant will be able to recommend a comprehensive strength program that includes 5 quadricep strengthening exercises for maximizing hypertrophy for an athlete in the advanced stage of rehabilitation following ACL surgery.
- Upon completion of the course, the participant will be able to design a protocol using 6 advanced proprioceptive and agility drills for a patient in the advanced stages of recovery following ACL surgery.
- Upon completion of the course, the participant will be able to explain the appropriate sequence of running drills when initiating a running program for an athlete to return-to-play following an ACL injury
- Upon completion of the course, the participant will be able to justify the importance of plyometric drills in the advanced stage of rehabilitation for the athlete returning to basketball, volleyball or other impact sports.
