Abstract
Background: HUBER 360 and PRIMUS-RS are technologically advance rehabilitation and assessment equipments. However, there is a dearth of literature, to the best of our knowledge, on the use of the above equipment’s in the objective assessment and effective rehabilitation. Case Report: The case discussed is of a 30 year old female who underwent Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) Reconstruction three months prior to approaching our physiotherapy department and was looking for more advance rehabilitation. A thorough pre-assessment was done, a part of which included the PRIMUS-RS testing of isometric strength, power and endurance of knee muscles. A week wise rehabilitation protocol was designed for 5 weeks on HUBER 360 at the end of which again PRIMUS-RS testing was done. It was then found that the deficits in the muscle strength, power and endurance had reduced and patient perceived herself to be able to perform better in her daily activities. Conclusion: Thus, it proves that the PRIMUS-RS and HUBER 360 play an important role in objective assessment and rehabilitation of a musculoskeletal patient. KEY WORDS: Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction, HUBER 360, PRIMUS-RS, Rehabilitation.
