AlterG ACL Return to Running Case Series

"Standard ACL protocol will be followed throughout the treatment of each patient. The only variance from treatment will be using body weight supported treadmill and video gait analysis to help guide treatment.~The first analysis will be performed at week 6 after surgery. Motion capture sensors will be placed on the patient at different anatomical positions. The patient will then run in a body weight supported treadmill. During this run, video capture will be performed and later analyzed to determine biomechanical kinematics.~Based on findings of video gait analysis, exercise progression will be altered to improve deficits found. This process will be repeated at week 8 of rehabilitation in the body weight supported treadmill.~At week 10 and 12, the patient will shift treatment from the body weight supported treadmill, to a standard treadmill. The process will be repeated using the same anatomical landmarks and video capture."
