After anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) one of the most obvious consequences of AMI is the lack of quadriceps activation and strength. Understanding the underlying mechanisms of AMI is crucial for developing effective therapeutic interventions. The surgical procedure needed to reconstruct the ACL has biochemical et physiological consequences such as inflammation, pain, and altered proprioception. These alterations contribute to the development of AMI. Therapeutic interventions aimed at addressing AMI encompass a multidimensional approach targeting pain reduction, inflammation management, proprioceptive training, and quadriceps activation. Early management focusing on pain modulation through modalities like ice, compression, and pharmacological agents help mitigate the inflammatory response and alleviate pain, thereby reducing the reflexive inhibition of quadriceps. Quadriceps activation techniques such as neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) and biofeedback training aid in overcoming muscle inhibition and restoring muscle strength. NMES elicits muscle contractions through electrical stimulation, bypassing the inhibitory mechanisms associated with AMI, thus facilitating muscle activation and strength gains. Comprehensive rehabilitation programs tailored to individual needs and stage of recovery are essential for optimizing outcomes in AMI. The objective of this clinical viewpoint is to delineate the significance of adopting a multimodal approach for the effective management of AMI, emphasizing the integration of pain modulation, proprioceptive training, muscle activation techniques, and manual therapy interventions. Highlighting the critical role of early intervention and targeted rehabilitation programs, this article aims to underscore their importance in restoring optimal function and mitigating long-term complications associated with AMI.</p>","PeriodicalId":47892,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Sports Physical Therapy","volume":"19 8","pages":"1044-1051"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2024-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11297573/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141890426","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One such criterion which quantifies dynamic stability is the Y-Balance Test (YBT), though it has not been validated in children under age 11.</p><p><strong>Hypothesis/purpose: </strong>The purpose of this study was to examine the performance of 8 to 10-year-old patients on the YBT after lower-extremity injury and determine how these results compare to larger samples of age-grouped athletes within the validated 11 to 17-year-old range. It was hypothesized that 8 to 10-year-olds would display different normalized YBT distances compared to 11 to 17-year-olds.</p><p><strong>Study design: </strong>Cross-sectional Study.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>Patients (N=1093) aged 8 to 17 who presented to a pediatric sports medicine practice with a lower-extremity injury and completed the YBT between December 2015-May 2021 were included. Anterior, posteromedial, and posterolateral YBT scores were collected at return-to-sport for affected and unaffected limbs. Scores were normalized to limb length, and composite scores were created. Between-limb differences were calculated in groups of ages 8-10, 11-12, 13-14, and 15-17. Groups were also evaluated for differences by sex.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>A rise in performance was observed in unaffected limb anterior reach from ages 8 to 10 years to 11 to 12 years followed by a subsequent significant decrease at older ages (p<0.001). Affected limb anterior reach differed between the youngest group and two oldest groups (p=0.004). Anterior and composite difference were significantly different between the oldest three groups (p=0.014 anterior; p=0.024 composite). No differences were observed between sexes in 8 to 10-year-olds, though 11 to 12-year-old females reached further during all eight distances. In the older three groups, males generally displayed greater between-limb differences.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>YBT scores, specifically anterior reach, demonstrated inconsistency by age and sex across a large adolescent cohort. Existing return-to-sport standards should not be used with younger athletes, and individual validation is required.</p><p><strong>Level of evidence: </strong>Level III.</p>","PeriodicalId":47892,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Sports Physical Therapy","volume":"19 8","pages":"989-996"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2024-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11392459/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142298735","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
