Exercise Rehabilitation of Knee Injuries and following Orthopaedic Surgery of the Knee

"There is no longer any question that rehabilitation plays an exceptionally important role following ACL repair if a satisfactory outcome is to be achieved" Donald Shelbourne

As an orthopaedic surgeon you will no doubt totally agree with the sentiments of Donald Shelbourne, not only following ACL reconstructive surgery, but also following all orthopaedic surgery from arthroscopic procedures to complex multiple ligamentous reconstructions, for the importance of appropriate exercise rehabilitation.

With this in mind:-

· Is the excellence you strive to achieve with your surgery matched by the rehabilitation expertise your patients receive?

· Do you find your patient's often returning to you not making the progress you or your patient would expect and their return to sport and full function delayed?

· Are you often left in the dark as to the functional progress of your patient or are the reports you receive vague and subjective?
