“…Most studies evaluated the strength tests at return to sport (RTS) around 8 months post-ACLR. Six studies evaluated strength tests as a prognostic value for a variety of outcomes, such as movement quality outcomes, PROMs, re-ruptures and achieving RTS at follow up [ 9 , 19 , 21 , 22 , 29 , 36 ]. One study evaluated the prognostic value of strength tests for achieving RTS and one study for sustaining an ipsilateral re-rupture [ 9 , 29 ].…”

“…PROMs in relation to RTS were evaluated in 10 studies, as is shown in Additional file 2 , Table 4 [ 3 , 4 , 9 , 12 , 18 , 21 , 23 , 30 , 36 , 44 ]. The IKDC Subjective Knee Evaluation Form [ 21 , 36 , 44 ] and the ACL-RSI [ 4 , 9 , 23 ] are evaluated most frequently, followed by the Tegner Activity Scale [ 3 , 4 ]. Of the paediatric PROMs, the Pedi-IKDC is tested in one study [ 9 ].…”

Limited evidence for return to sport testing after ACL reconstruction in children and adolescents under 16 years: a scoping review

et al. 2020

Specific return to sport criteria for children and adolescents after anterior cruciate ligament injury and reconstruction are unknown. The aim of this scoping review is to provide an overview of current tests regarding return to sport for children and adolescents. This scoping review was performed according to the PRISMA statement. A systematic search was performed on PubMed and EMBASE. The inclusion criteria were diagnostic and prognostic studies evaluating tests regarding return to sport after ACL injury and reconstruction in children/adolescents (age < 18 years). Twenty-six studies were included, of which 22 studies evaluated tests in the age category of 16 to 18 years. All studies evaluated tests after ACL reconstruction, no studies have been conducted in non-operative patients. Strength tests, movement quality and patient reported outcomes measures (PROMs) are investigated most frequently. Clearance for return to sport should be based on a test battery including strength tests, movement quality during sport-specific tasks and (paediatric) patient reported outcome measures. There are no recommendations on which specific tests regarding quantity and quality of movement should be used. Future research should aim at at developing and validating a test battery including movement quality and neuromotor control in a sport-specific context for both younger children and adolescents after both operative and non-operative treatment.

“…Outcomes related to self-care are commonly assessed among the general population; however, health care providers who primarily tend to athletes may be overlooking these important factors because they tend to focus on activities that directly relate to sport participation. 37,38 Managing self-care is not a necessary activity for sport participation but contributes to overall health.…”

Context Determining meaningful aspects of health is crucial for outcome assessment; however, limited literature exists on the aspects of health that are deemed meaningful by the athletic patient population. Objective To identify experiences and meaningful outcomes after lower extremity (LE) musculoskeletal injury among collegiate athletes. Design Qualitative study. Setting University laboratory Patients or Other Participants A purposive sample of 20 athletes (10 men, 10 women; age = 20.1 ± 1.83 years) from a National Collegiate Athletic Association Division I institution in the Midwest who had sustained an LE injury. Data Collection and Analysis Semistructured face-to-face interviews and inductive data analysis were conducted. Trustworthiness of the data was established using member checks and peer debriefing. Results Four themes emerged from the data, revealing that physical changes, psychological changes, personal and lifestyle changes, and support were the most meaningful outcomes among athletes with an LE injury. The 4 themes were associated with 21 subthemes, indicating the complexity with which LE injury affects individuals Conclusions Our findings demonstrate the importance of caring for the whole person. Athletic trainers must broaden their focus to provide the best patient care and consider the person's activities and life demands outside of athletic participation. The themes identified in this study provide a basis for selecting appropriate health markers and outcome measures.
