quadriceps index of postoperative ACL reconstruction patient
Conditions
Interventions
Isokinetic dynamometer (ISO) is a computerized machine for evaluating muscle strength in many variables such as peak force,
endurance and torque which can create graphs results. It is reliable and able to compare with other test but more expensive and limited access in Thailand. On the other hand,
held dynamometer (HHD),
is smaller,
portable,
inexpensive and easy to use.
Experimental Device
held dynamometer(HHD) and Isokinetic dynamometer(ISO)
