The effect of proprioceptive knee bracing on knee stability during three different sport related movement tasks in healthy subjects and the implications to the management of Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) injuries

Highlights • The pivot turn jump showed the largest knee valgus and internal rotation angle. • No differences were seen in the sagittal plane between brace and no brace. • Bracing showed an improvement in coronal and transverse plane knee control. • The use of proprioceptive braces may help to decre...

Summary:Highlights • The pivot turn jump showed the largest knee valgus and internal rotation angle. • No differences were seen in the sagittal plane between brace and no brace. • Bracing showed an improvement in coronal and transverse plane knee control. • The use of proprioceptive braces may help to decrease risk of knee injuries.
