Effect of Fatigue on Quadriceps Force Control After ACL Reconstruction – Uninjured Control Group
Our study goal is to better understand how ACL reconstruction and fatigue affect thigh muscle force control and the associated physiology. In order to do so, we must also evaluate individuals with no prior surgical history for comparison. Overall, we hope that this information may inform improved rehabilitation for more successful post-surgical outcomes. Participation involves completing several online questionnaires (~15 minutes) prior to an in-person study visit (~90 minutes).
