The International Olympic Committee
organized a meeting of an international panel of physiotherapists and orthopedic
surgeons who specialize in treating and researching pediatric anterior cruciate
ligament (ACL) injuries to develop a consensus statement on the prevention,
diagnosis, and management of pediatric ACL injuries. The key sections cover
injury prevention (e.g., 11+ for kids program, factors that impact injury
prevention effectiveness); diagnosis, clinical tests, and imaging; treatment of
ACL injuries (e.g., rehabilitation, surgical techniques); treatment decision
modifiers; pediatric patient-reported outcomes; ethical considerations; and
future research.
