[Non-typical measurements during a isokinetic training session after ACL-reconstruction]

Rehabilitative resistance work programs after ACL-injuries are derived from programs known from competitive sports training. The development of different parameters (max. Power output, total work per set) was examined in 12 patients after ACL-reconstruction during a training session on an isokinetic training machine with a velocity of 120 degrees /sec and 60 degrees /sec. The results let suppose that neuromuscular structures of patients with ACL-reconstruction react different to those of healthy people in the control group. Therefore the rehabilitation programs have to be adjusted to the recruitment pattern of motor units after ACL-injury. In this case there has to be a progression of intensity during the isokinetic training session.
