INTRODUCTION

  • Presentation of the data about one of our patietiens, GZ, that used DESMOTEC D.Full in his ACL rehabilitation process
  • The subject is an athlete who performs skiing and ski mountaineering
  • GZ did not have any particular problem, articular mobility of knee was complete and the functionality of the articulation was good.
  • The aim of this process was to improve his neuro.muscular profile:
  1. Qualitative point of view (maximum syimmetrical expression of both limbs)
  2. Quantitative point of view (improving power and strength)

On 29th November 2019, it is clear a disequilibrium to the left, with the superimposition of the unloaded force and with the derivative of the differential between the two limbs

On 3rd March 2020, the disequilibrium to the left has been reduced, with the superimposition of the unloaded force and with the derivative of the differential between the two limbs

CONCLUSIONS

  • Isoinertial training with Desmotec D.11 allowed the subject to achieve his goal, improving his beuro-muscular profile.
  1. From a qualitative point of view, the force expression reached symmetry
  2. From a Quantitative point of view, the growth of force, during the eccentric phase, will allow the subject to icrease work loads, allowing him to express more power.
