The Need To Change Return to Play Testing in Athletes Following ACL Injury: A Theoretical Model by Kevin E Wilk, Zachary M Thomas, Christopher A Arrigo, George J Davies

“…The purpose of this manuscript is to share a neurocognitive testing sequence we currently employ consisting of 8 tests in 3 categories: Blazepod tests, reactive shuttle run tests, and reactive hop tests. The use of a more dynamic reactive testing battery may decrease the reinjury rates when an athlete is cleared for participation by measuring readiness in chaotic circumstances that are more truly reflective of the sporting environment the athlete is working to return to and in the process give them a greater sense of confidence.…”
