Abstract
Introduction
Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries, have substantial consequences, including functional deficits and increased risk of further knee issues. This review article aims to provide a comprehensive analysis of the biomechanical parameters involved in patients with ACL injury, focusing on both static and dynamic movements. Understanding the biomechanical factors associated with ACL injury can aid in injury prevention, rehabilitation, and optimizing treatment strategies
Method
A systematic literature search was conducted using various databases, including PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar. The search terms included ACL injury, biomechanics, static movements, dynamic movements, and comprehensive analysis. Studies published between 2000-2023 were included, and relevant articles were selected based on their relevance to the topic.
The review identified several biomechanical parameters that are commonly assessed in patients with ACL injury. Biomechanical parameters include joint angles, forces, moments, and muscle activation patterns during different movements. Neuromuscular factors would involve studying the coordination, timing, and activation patterns of muscles, as well as proprioception and reflexes or affect rehabilitation outcomes. Static movements, such as single-leg stance and squatting, provide insights into joint stability, muscle activation patterns, and postural control. Dynamic movements, including cutting, jumping, and landing tasks, help evaluate knee kinematics, ground reaction forces, and muscle coordination during more functional activities.Neuromuscular factors include muscle strength, coordination, proprioception (awareness of body position), and reflexes
Result
Assessing neuromuscular function helps identify deficits or imbalances that may contribute to ACL injury risk or affect rehabilitation outcomes. Furthermore, Neuromuscular factors encompass the interaction between the nervous system and the muscles surrounding the knee joint. As a result of the analysis of biomechanical parameters, different methods can be used to optimize neuromuscular coordination in static ACL reconstruction. The analysis of biomechanical parameters in static ACL reconstruction suggests the use of rehabilitation exercises, balance and proprioception training, and functional training to optimize neuromuscular coordination. In dynamic ACL reconstruction, the focus shifts towards restoring dynamic stability and functional performance through plyometric training and sport-specific training. Programs should also include a combination of strengthening, stretching, aerobic conditioning, plyometrics, proprioceptive and balance training, as well as instruction and feedback on body mechanics and proper landing patterns.
