This book was released on 2022 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABSTRACT: Background: Functional knee braces are commonly prescribed to patients after anterior cruciateligament reconstruction (ACLR) surgery to reduce anterior translation of the tibia and providestability to the knee. The purpose of this literature review is to determine if functional kneebracing affects physical performance in high-impact athletes.Method: A comprehensive literature review conducted using Medline Complete, CINAHL, Cochrane Systematic Reviews, Cochrane Control Trials, SPORTDiscus, Rehab and Sports Medicine, PEDro, PTNow/apta.org, Google Scholar, ClinicalTrials.gov, and NIH. Inclusion criteria required publication after 2010, history of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tear, reconstruction using bone-to-bone patellar tendon autograft (BTBPA), and subject pool of highimpact athletes ages 19-25. Non-English literature and studies examining immobilizer or postsurgical bracing were excluded. Articles were critically appraised for internal and external validity.Results: Five studies met the inclusion criteria, including 3 intervention studies, and 2 systematic reviews. Functional knee bracing increased hop distance symmetry and peak impact performance symmetry. No impact on joint position sense, the modified agility test (MAT), the vertical jump test or quadriceps function was found.Discussion/Conclusion: Prescribing functional knee braces to athletes does not have an effect on physical performance during return to sport. Prescription of a functional knee brace (FKB) also increases healthcare cost. Limitations include underrepresentation of female high-impact athletes, lack of a universal definition of functional knee bracing, and poor homogeneity of graft type. Lastly, bracing may have a positive impact on athlete confidence in the return to sport period.

This book was released on 2014 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The use of knee braces prophylactically is still considered as an approach for injury mitigation for those in high-risk sporting activities, though their use is not fully supported. The purpose of this thesis was to examine biomechanical and neuromuscular effects of prophylactic brace wear following standardized repetitive exercise. Twelve participants participated and acted as their own control. The participants were required to participate in two sessions, one control session with no brace and one intervention session with the application of a off-the-shelf prophylactic knee brace. Pre-and post-exercise intervention single leg drop landings were recorded to examine the effects of an acute exercise stimulus on the neuromuscular and biomechanical effects of brace wear. Additionally, trials were collected at 30-minutes post-exercise to examine residual effects of the brace wear on landing kinematics and kinetics. Difference tests using analysis of variance (ANOVA) showed that there was a minimal effect of the prophylactic knee brace on biomechanical and neuromuscular variables following exercise as well as 30-minutes following knee brace removal. Further research may be required to identify if braces can be worn prophylactically to reduce the risk of injury during activity.
