@MarkusWalden In their database:
- Few career-ending injuries (1.8%)
- Approx 7% retear rate w/in 1 yr post #ACLR
Are these re-injuries failures? Or a deliberate high-risk decision? Interesting question.

But onward ho! First up with my note thread attached: @DrKateWebster on #ACL RTS and reinjury rates in elite female athletes.
Impt to point out: a lot of data is often on male athletes, not as much known about female athletes!

@DrKateWebster At ALL LEVELS OF PARTICIPATION, females are at greater risk for #ACL injury.
Overall, elite athletes: 83% return to pre-injury level
Elite females: Also 83%!
(incl handball, soccer, alpine skiing/snowboarding, basketball)
