Study Summary
This study will evaluate the acute effects of vibration (whole body vibration and local muscle vibration) on quadriceps function, knee joint proprioception, and gait biomechanics linked to osteoarthritis development in individuals with anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. Subjects will be randomly assigned to control (no vibration), whole body vibration, and local muscle vibration groups, and the aforementioned characteristics will be assessed prior to and following the respective interventions.
Primary Outcome
Change score (Post-Pre) for the ground reaction force during the first 50% of the stance phase calculated as the slope of the vertical ground reaction force time series curve from heelstrike to the first ground reaction force peak. Though a "normal" value has not been established, typical values for the raw scores (i.e. not change scores) range 8.5-9.5 multiples of body weight per second.
