Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • ACL-injuries with grade I-II at least 8 weeks by measuring joint laxity test by stress X-ray with Telos (side to side difference between 3 - 8 mm.)
  • No collateral ligaments and meniscus injuries
  • No joint pain and knee joint effusion (less than 2 cm. from the opposite side measuring at joint line
  • No history of previous injuries in other structure of lower extremities that resulted in ligamentous laxity at ankle and hip
  • No current medical problems such as vestibular system, visual system or neurological condition that can impair their ability to perform a sidestep cutting task
  • No joint and structural deformity such as flat feet, genu valgus and genu varus
  • Able to complete functional test (Single hop for distance and Triple hop for distance) which the distance is not less than 85% of unaffected side

Exclusion

  • Knee joint swelling is greater than 2 cm. of unaffected side
  • Joint laxity test by stress X-ray with Telos (side to side difference greater than 8 mm.)
  • Unable to complete functional test (Single hop for distance and Triple hop for distance) which the distance is less than 85% of unaffected side
