RECRUITING

Michigan Split-belt Treadmill Training Program to Improve Acute Knee Biomechanics After ACL Reconstruction

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

The goal of this study is to determine short-term adaptations (aftereffects) in knee loading after a 20-minute split-belt treadmill training session in patients with ACL reconstruction. Our main question for this aim are: 1. Are training-mediated aftereffects in the knee joint moment greater for tied-belt walking or split-belt walking? 2. Are training-mediated aftereffects in the knee joint moment different between subjects who train early stance knee loading versus subjects who train mid-stance knee loading?
