Abstract
BACKGROUND: The return to activities and sports after the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction is a critical decision. OBJECTIVE: To verify the most used elements during the isokinetic evaluation for discharge after ACL reconstruction. METHODS: Systematic review (PROSPERO CRD42021224433). Research in the literature: PubMed, Medline, SciELO, Lilacs, CENTRAL, PEDro, Web of Science and Embase, in February 2022. Studies that performed isokinetic evaluation during the discharge period in male patients aged 18 to 59 years after ACL reconstruction. Descriptive synthesis on the most used parameters during isokinetic evaluation as a discharge criteria after ACL reconstruction. RESULT: Twenty-three studies involving 1,792 participants were included. Medium and high quality evidence identified that most isokinetic evaluations targeted only muscle strength after rehabilitation of the ACL (peak moment). CONCLUSION: The most used elements during the isokinetic evaluation were: angular velocity of 60∘/s, 1 set of 5 repetitions, concentric mode and peak moment.
