Simple hop test could predict ACL Re-Injury risk
NCT ID NCT06829849
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested a new scale called SHD-LESS to see if it can detect landing asymmetry in people who had ACL reconstruction surgery. Sixty participants performed a single hop for distance while being recorded on video, and two doctors scored their landing technique. The goal is to improve return-to-sport decisions and reduce the chance of re-injury.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
Landing error assessment using the SHD-LESS scale (diagnostic test)
What this could lead to
If successful, this scale could help doctors better identify who is ready to safely return to sports after ACL surgery, potentially reducing re-injury risk.
What could go wrong
This is a small, completed study with only 60 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The scale is new and needs more testing before routine use.
