To brace or not to brace after ACL reconstruction with Dr Christina Le

Physio Network

In this episode with Dr Christina Le, we discuss her Research Review of a recent article which looked at a bracing protocol vs going brace-free for the first 6 weeks post ACL reconstruction with hamstring autograft. We discuss the strengths and limitations of the paper as well as what we as clinicians should take away from the paper and use in our own clinical practice.
