Immediate and six-week effects of wearing a knee sleeve following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction on knee kinematics and kinetics: a cross-over laboratory and randomised clinical trial

Abstract Background Elastic knee sleeves are often worn following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) but their effects on movement patterns are unclear. Aim To determine the immediate and six-week effects of wearing a knee sleeve on biomechanics of the knee during a step-down hop task....
