Interventions

Quadriceps intensive strengtheningbehavioral

Quadriceps intensive strengthening includes high-intensity neuromuscular electrical stimulation to the quadriceps muscle for 10 minutes and overload to the the eccentric phase of quadriceps strengthening exercises.

Standard rehabilitationbehavioral

Standard rehabilitation will include interventions for typical knee impairments (effusion, knee motion deficits, lower extremity muscle weakness, and gait deviations) as well as advanced rehabilitation interventions as indicated (jump and agility exercises)
