Did you know that only 55% of females who rupture their ACL return to sport? While elite female athletes tend to have more favorable outcomes, with most (~80%) returning to the same level of pre-injury participation, it is estimated that one in four will eventually re-rupture their ACL. Among players who returned to soccer, almost 70% reported a new knee injury, with a **2- to 5-**fold higher risk of any new knee injury and knee surgery than healthy players. Around 40% of female players who sustained an ACL injury reported a new ACL injury 5 to 10 years following the initial injury. While there is a lot of complexity surrounding ACL injury in women's sport, two of the low-hanging fruit that could contribute to improving the current statistics are: 1. Objective return-to-sport testing. 2. A structured strength and conditioning program designed to maintain excellent function once rehabilitation has been completed. #aclinjury #aclprevention #aclrehab #kneeinjury #returntosport #FIFAWomensWorldCup2023 Image Credit: Getty Images - Jose Breton

We were delighted to host Macquarie University’s clinical science students for their PACE placement at Jointli. Lauren, Josh, and Keelin immersed themselves in the dynamic environment of Landmark Orthopaedics, engaging in educational tasks and gaining valuable insights. From viewing orthopaedic consultations at The Knee Institute and following a patient's rehab session at Jointli to exploring cutting-edge technology at Personalised Surgery, they gained a comprehensive view of the patient journey. They also gained insight into ongoing research initiatives, including a demonstration of our advanced motion capture lab and experiencing our return-to-sport testing technologies. Their passion for healthcare and eagerness to learn were truly inspiring. We are confident that these students will make significant contributions to the future of medical science. Best of luck to each of them on their exciting career paths!
