When Do Kinetic Changes Place Greatest Risk for Non-contact Acl Injury during the Stance Phase of Football Cutting Maneuvers in Match Play Conditions?

چکیده
This research aimed to determine when kinetic changes place greatest risk for noncontact ACL (anterior cruciate ligament) injury during football cutting in match play. Fourteen professional football players undertook three trials of a straight line run and sidestep cutting at 30° and 60° with standardised velocity on an approved football surface. Two types of standardised studded football boots were utilised. Using inverse dynamics analyses, an eight camera gait analysis system synchronised with a force platform, determination of knee joint moments, joint forces and flexion angles were undertaken. Magnitudes and timings were compared with critical limits for ACL injury. 3350% of stance during cutting was associated with increased risk of ACL injury with peak valgus and internal rotational moments and anterior joint forces. Knee flexion above 30° at 22%-77% of stance appears protective. By ensuring knee control by training techniques, ACL injury risk could be reduced.

Background and Aim: Lack of attention to biomechanical parameters during sports maneuvers, especially unpredictable maneuvers can be one of the reasons for athleteschr('39') injuries in sports fields. The aim of this study was to compare the kinematic parameters of the lower limb in side-cutting maneuver with and without anticipation in male football players. Methods: In the present quasi-exper...

Background: Women and men significantly differ in the extent of anterior cruciate ligament injury. Based on the evidence, gender especially contributes in non-contact mechanism of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury. The purpose of this study was to compare the movement patterns of the ACL injury risk between men and women during cutting maneuver. Methods: 13 men and 13 women of national...
متن کاملGender differences exist in neuromuscular control patterns during the pre-contact and early stance phase of an unanticipated side-cut and cross-cut maneuver in 15-18 years old adolescent soccer players.
Non-contact ACL injuries generally occur as the foot contacts the ground during cutting or landing maneuvers and the non-contact ACL injury rate is 2-8 times greater in females compared to males. To provide insight into the gender bias of this injury, this study set out to identify gender differences in the neuromuscular response of the quadriceps, hamstrings and gastrocnemii muscles in elite a...

“The purpose of this project is to determine if a v i d e o b a s e d method of determining runto-cut style type is as accurate as the pattern determined through the kinetic method.” Non-contact anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries are common among both elite and recreational athletes. Research shows that such non-contact knee ligament injuries typically involve sudden changes in direction...

PURPOSE The current study examined how different training affects the kinematics and applied moments at the knee during sporting maneuvers and the potential to reduce loading of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL). The training programs were 1) machine weights, 2) free weights, 3) balance training, and 4) machine weights + balance training. METHODS Fifty healthy male subjects were allocated ...
