ACL Injury Return to Sports Evaluation — $495

ACL Injury Return to Sports Evaluation costs $495 in cash through NYU Langone Sports Performance Center. That is the whole price: you pay it when you book, and no bill follows.

This return to sports evaluation is designed for people who are questioning whether they can go back to playing their sport after having anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction surgery and completing rehabilitation. | The comprehensive assessment includes the following: | • Landing error score system that determines whether athletes show neuromuscular or strength deficits during drop-jump movements | • Step-down test that determines hip and core stability in single leg movement| • Hop test that compares stability, strength, and movement control between the right and left legs| • Modified Bunkie test, a type of functional strength test, that identifies which planes of stability and strength are limited| • Biodex isokinetic test that compares muscle strength balance of the right and left legs | After conducting these tests, our specialists identify any risk of increased injury and advise whether athletes are ready to return to their sport. Detailed guidelines for exercise programming needed prior to return to sport are provided as needed.
