Brief Summary

Following anterior cruciate ligament injury cascade of neuroplastic changes occur which affect the outcome post injury.. Available treatment approaches emphasis on biomechanical factors like muscle strength, flexibility, and plyometric function and give less consideration to cognitive or neurological components. The training & restoration of primarily biomechanical factors may not address all the physiologic consequences of in­jury, as patient-reported dysfunction and poor movement control may persist for years.

Till date, no studies could  be retrieved the knee function, injury recov­ery and re-injury prevention  following ACL injury in copers. Hence the study focuses on effect of neurocognitive rehabilitation on knee function following ACL injury in copers.
