Pilot Testing Effect of Visual Manipulation on Center-of-Pressure and Functional Performance 6–8 Weeks After ACL Reconstruction
By Emanuele Tortoli.
Abstract
Objectves Primary Objective: - Assess how visual manipulation (normal, stroboscopic, and eyes closed) influences postural stability 6–8 weeks after ACLR. Secondary Objectives: - Identify patients exhibiting early visual reliance. - Quantify degrees of visual dependence during balance tasks. - Provide data for development of new, evidence-based rehabilitation protocols.
