Knowledge Translation Intervention for ACL Injury Prevention Program in Youth Soccer

Completed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Anterior Cruciate Ligament Injuries, Lower Extremity Problem

In brief

Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries of the knee are common in youth soccer players, and show an even higher prevalence in female soccer players. Clinical practice guidelines recommend ACL injury prevention programs (ACL-IPP) to reduce injury risk, yet implementation in amateur youth soccer is low, reducing actual real-world effectiveness. This trial is a pragmatic effectiveness trial for ACL injury prevention for amateur youth soccer players, using a knowledge translation intervention with the Knowledge-to-Action Framework.
