Content validity, interpretability, and internal consistency of the "Quality First" assessment to evaluate movement quality in hop tests following ACL rehabilitation. A cross-sectional study.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Current approaches fail to adequately identify sport readiness after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rehabilitation. Altered landing biomechanics after ACL reconstruction are associated with increased risk of a noncontact ACL reinjury. There is a lack of objective factors to screen for deficient movement patterns. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate content validity, interpretability, and internal consistency for the newly developed "Quality First" assessment to evaluate movement quality during hop tests in patients after ACL rehabilitation.

Method

Participants in this cross-sectional study were recruited in collaboration with the Altius Swiss Sportmed Center in Rheinfelden, Switzerland. After a successful ACL reconstruction, the movement qualit
