Anterior Cruciate Ligament reconstruction is the surgical replacement of the anterior cruciate ligament with a tissue graft to restore function. The anterior cruciate ligament injury is one of the main ligaments in the knee that serves to maintain the stability of the knee joint so that it does not move too freely. ACL Injuries are a relatively common knee injury among athletes who play sports involving. The type of intervention that can be done is the use of Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation. The method can help deal with problems of decreased muscle strength and muscle contraction. The purpose of this study …

Physical activity of a sufficient amount and intensity is essential to health and the prevention of a sedentary lifestyle in all children as they transition into adolescence and adulthood. While fostering a fit lifestyle in all children can be challenging, it may be even more so for those with cerebral palsy (CP). Evidence suggests that bone and muscle health can improve with targeted exercise programs for children with CP. Yet, it is not clear how musculoskeletal improvements are sustained into adulthood. In this perspective, we introduce key ingredients and guidelines to promote bone and muscle health in ambulatory children with …

Purpose: People with Parkinson’s disease (PD) have impaired force production, which is associated with decreased mobility and falls risk. Reliable measurement of force production is important. Design: A repeated-measures, intra- and inter-rater reliability study was undertaken. Participants: 24 people with mild PD were measured by one or two raters. Outcome measures: Isometric force of the major upper and lower limb muscle groups was measured using hand-held dynamometry. Results: Fourteen participants were measured by the same rater on two occasions to determine intra-rater reliability. Ten participants were measured on two occasions by two different raters to determine …
