AMP ACL Injury Prevention Program - The Orthopaedic Institute at St Elizabeth Healthcare
The Orthopaedic Institute at St Elizabeth Healthcare is pleased to offer an ACL Injury Prevention Program as a part of our Athletes Maximizing Performance series. The goal of this program is to help athletes increase strength and learn new techniques and skills to reduce their risk of an ACL injury.
High school athletes have a 1 in 100 chance of tearing their ACL. Sports that involve cutting, jumping, landing and pivoting increase the risk of ACL injury.
About 75% of all ACL injuries did not result from contact.
Female athletes are four to six times more likely to tear their ACL than their male counterparts.
