Episode 91: How Do I Manage Multi-ligament Knee Injuries?

  • Summary

  • This week we discuss multi-ligament knee injuries. These are uncommon, but devastating injuries. In athletes, return to sport rates are as high as 53%, but in higher competitive levels it could be more like 23%. The authors note there is a lack of evidence describing return to sport testing in this population, which they attempt to rectify with this article. They describe different phases of rehab, expected timelines for various activities (walking, running, cutting, etc), and objective markers to look to achieve at different time periods (ex. >65% quad strength LSI at 4 months). Tables 1 and 2 are very helpful to summarize this information quickly and give actionable methods.

    The abstract can be found here: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35141534/
