1 Thank You Thanks to OHSU for the kind invitation to present this information It is indeed an honor and privilege to be invited to participate and share information. A Quantitative and Qualitative Functional Testing Algorithm for clinical decision making to return athletes back to Sports following a Knee Injury Clinical Decision-Making: Specific Parameters to return an athlete back to sports following a knee injury What amazes me, is that many of us need to make this decision on a regular basis, however, there are: 1) very few guidelines published 2) few objective tests documented to support the clinical decision making process 3) limited evidence to support this process Return to Play-Summary So what are most clinicians doing for criteria for RTP? RTP-after ACL-R Barber-Westin, SD, Noyes, FR. Factors used to determine return to unrestricted sports activities after ACL-R. Arthroscopy. 27: , 2011 (Systematic Review) RTP-after ACL-R ACL-R: May fail Rates of either reinjuring an ACL-R knee or sustaining an ACL rupture to contralateral knee range from 3-49% RTP-after ACL-R Systematic review: 264 studies: 105 (40%) failed to provide any criteria for RTP 84 (32%) amount of time post-op was only criteria 40 (15%) time and subjective criteria 35 (13%) objective criteria Muscle strength, stability, neuromuscular control, function RTP-after ACL-R Systematic review: 264 studies: 35 (13%) objective criteria 9 %-muscle strength criteria 80-90% of Q & H 6 % - effusion/rom 4% - single leg hop 1 study stability 1 study validated questionnaires Clinical Decision- Making So, what else can we do??? 1
2 Clearance to Return to Sports One method is to have baseline preparticipation information, and have the athlete return back to normal for all the parameters So how do we do it??? One way is to perform a task analysis of the specific sport Try to establish a performance metric Check epidemiology information for MOI Then determine if there are appropriate tests with good psychometric properties to test and evaluate the specific tasks for the sport Return To Sports Need to perform testing in nonfatigued state as well as fatigued state Clearance to Return to Sports If a physician, physical therapist or athletic trainer allows an athlete to return to sports, they may be legally held responsible if the athlete encounters a reinjury. Creighton, DW, et.al. Return-to-play in sport: a decision-based model. Clin J Sports Med. 20(5): , 2010 Return to Play Literature Review CLINICAL ARTICLE Functional progression of a patient through a rehabilitation program Davies, GJ, et.al. Orthop Phys Ther Clinics North America, 9: , 2000 HOT TOPIC 2017 Literature State of the Art-RTS Key take home messages regarding definitions for return to sport (RTS) The minimum information required to define RTS is: 1) the sport and the level of participation the athlete aims to return to. 2) RTS is a continuum comprising three elements: return to participation, return to sport return to performance. 3) In certain situations the RTS decision may be reversed to a removal from sport decision. 4) The RTS decision should be shared among all stakeholders (except in the case of health risk to the athlete). Arden, CL, et.al Consensus statement on return to Sport from the First World Congress in Sports Physical Therapy. BJSM. May, 2016 The evidence emerging from this study suggests that the majority of patients who are 6 months after ACLR require additional rehabilitation to pass RTS criteria. The RTS battery described in this study may serve as a framework for future studies to implement multivariate models in order to optimize the decision-making regarding RTS after ACLR with the aim to reduce incidence of second ACL injuries. Gokeler, A, et.al. Development of a test battery to enhance safe return to Sports after ACL reconstruction. Knee Surg Sports Traumatol Arthrosc. July,
3 Patients who return to level I sports had a 4.32 times higher injury rate than those who did not Re-injury rate was reduced by 51% for each month RTS was delayed until 9 months after surgery After 9 months, no further risk reduction was observed Grindem, H, et.al. Simple decision rules can reduce reinjury risk by 84% after ACL-R: the Delaware-Oslo ACL cohort study. BJSM. 1-16, Those who failed RTS criteria: 38.2% re-injury rate Those who passed RTS criteria: 5.6% More symmetrical quadriceps strength prior to RTS significantly reduced the knee re-injury rate Grindem, H, et.al. Simple decision rules can reduce reinjury risk by 84% after ACL-R: the Delaware-Oslo ACL cohort study.

More symmetrical loading patterns may be achieved by inducing bilateral fatigue. When fatigued, loading symmetry was similar between this patient group and controls. This is relevant information for those who implement rehabilitation training programs. Webster KE 1, et.al. Symmetry of squatting and the effect of fatigue following ACL-R.

The test is different from the long-used "chair test," which physicians sometimes use to gauge an elderly person's lower body strength by how well they can stand up from sitting in a chair. So we know what the incorrect Kinematics feel like Test: Stand to cross Legged sit and Stand The new test, a sitting-rising test (SRT), involves a score of 0-5 for each movement (sitting and rising), with a combined 10 being the highest score, awarded for those who can sit and rise from the floor without any assistance from their hands or knees. 11
12 Getting Up and Down Easily from the Floor is a Marker of Longevity The SRT test, which can be used on middle-aged and elderly adults, is incredibly simple. Sit down on the floor, and then get up, using as little assistance from your hands, knees or other body parts as possible. For each body part that you use for support, you'll lose one point from the possible top score of 10. Sitting Rising Test Squat (SRT) Test: Stand to cross Legged sit and Stand Scoring 1. Stand in comfortable clothes in your bare feet, with clear space around you. 2. Without leaning on anything, lower yourself to a sitting position on the floor. 3. Now stand back up, trying not to use your hands, knees, forearms or sides of your legs. This simple sitting test could predict how long you will live If you have trouble performing this test, your life could be cut short. Scoring The two basic movements in the sitting-rising test lowering to the floor and standing back up 1) Each scored on a 1-to-5 scale 2) one point subtracted each time a hand or knee is used for support 3) 0.5 points subtracted for loss of balance 4) single 10-point scale. Scoring Those who scored 0-3 were 6.5 times more likely to die during the study than those who scored 8-10 Those who scored 3.5 to 5.5 were 3.8 times more likely to die Those who scored 6 to 7.5 were 1.8 times more likely to die For instance, if you put one hand on the floor for support to sit down, then use a knee and a hand to help you get up, you'll "lose" three points for a combined score of 7. What do the numbers mean? They correlated strongly with participants' risk of death during the study period of just over six years. For each unit increase in SRT score, participants gained a 21 percent improvement in survival. Spanish Squat Spanish Squat 12
