Kapsel-Band-Verletzung des Kniegelenks

The first step in rehabilitation is to analyze of the cause of the trauma. A rehabilitation schedule that is oriented to individual wound healing stages must be used. The rehabilitation-tree analyses the basic physical qualities that have to be established and optimized at the end of rehabilitation. Speed, strength and endurance are the essential requirements for athletic or physical performance. These individual components are assembled algothithmically in the rehabilitation-tree. If a defined level of performance is not reached, rehabilitation will not proceeded to the following level. In order to control rehabilitation, orthopedic, clinical-dynamic performance diagnostics are used. These include evaluation of mobility and strength-endurance ability using barbells and, at a later stage, the evaluation of jumping ability. Such examinations can be used to evaluate the general physical performance of traumatized athletes during rehabilitation and their athletic ability at the end of rehabilitation. Controlled clinical trials are necessary to assess dynamic performance diagnostics so that standard methods can be evaluated. Standardized dynamic performance diagnostics should also be developed to aid prevention by identifying individual risk factors and further develop scientifically testable prevention programs.
