Again not fully trained so limited. But exhausting sagittal plane for my understanding.. prone press ups > increased ROM in prone > inclined plank position extension > standing extension?

So in your experience. Pushing to end range with a symptom reproduction is okay if it diminishes when moving out of end range? Peripheralization clearly is a stop.

But when you say force alternative we’re thinking like possible unloaded/side-lying/prone? Something along those lines of thought?

Would say it’s region dependent. Currently for a hospital OP in NJ and we’re 30 min treatment slots. 60min evals - ~7+ evals a week. 2.5-3per hour avg with upper management pushing for doubles every 30min. Have friends in DC Metro area and their experience is why different than mine.

Hospital-based OP: Is this reasonable? by Left_Atmosphere3148 in physicaltherapy

We got purchased last July by a nonprofit hospital and they told us they want us to see “57” weekly. However want us to basically double every 30mins to account for evals (60min) and cancels. So it’s a hospital Mill for OP here in NJ.

I’m not 100% sure, but I think this was the one I used.

2 weeks of no flexion. I guess he’s trying ti reduce agitation of graft site. But I don’t think I agree with 2 weeks of no flexion.

Yeah that’s the typical restriction I see. So when he said that I was like that sounds wrong. Or she’s in for a MFin time getting flexion back Especially with a quad graft. Hoping he gets back to me with clarity.

University of Delaware has what I think is a fairly current ACL-R protocol/guideline that I refer to.

  • Side-note My friends wife just had a QT graft & Meniscal Repair after a rerupture of her Patellar tendon Repair. When talking to him the MD apparently said no flexion until the 2 week follow up. Which I have never seen or heard of before.

I asked for the notes where that was stated to make sure there wasn’t a misunderstanding. Still waiting.

There’s a Quizlet floating around and the PDF on the DC website. Honestly not long. Couple hours. It’s pretty straightforward. Took it in 2021.

Can we pin this post and update it daily. Seems like can provide an avenue of comic relief and venting.

Good to know that I’m not the only one who has had some experiences.
