\ud83d\ude01 I’m really happy to see our article “Translation, cross-cultural adaptation, and clinimetric properties evaluation of the Danish version of the Anterior Cruciate Ligament \u2013 Return to Sport after Injury scale (ACL-RSI)<\/a>” out\ud83c\udf89

This publication is my first article as 1st author, and I can’t express enough appreciation to the author team Esben Kjeldgaard, Kasper Nordahl W\u00f8bbe, Cecilie K\u00f8llner Olsen, Kristoffer Barfod & @Vasileios Korakakis for their continuous support\ud83d\ude4f. It is the result of 4 years of work, including almost 3 years of enrolling over 100 ACL patients in Denmark who were between 8-24 months post-op. Thanks to all the clinicians who have helped. Thanks to all the patients who took the time to fill out the questionnaires. Thanks to Lasse Ish\u00f8i and Behnam Liaghat for listening and offering advice when I’ve been panicking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\ud83d\udcda The ACL-RSI questionnaire is a specific tool for assessing psychological readiness for return to sport, and our article focused on the translation, cross-cultural adaptation, and evaluation of the clinimetric properties of the Danish version of the Anterior Cruciate Ligament – Return to Sport after Injury scale (ACL-RSI).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\ud83d\udcda We followed all fundamental steps in the process and found excellent internal consistency (Cronbach’s alpha 0.957) and test-retest reliability (ICC = 0.96). We also validated the questionnaire against KOOS and K-SES as they are commonly used in ACLR. We also confirmed the unidimensionality of the scale, and did not observe any floor or ceiling effects. The mean time of completion of the questionnaire is 4.5 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We concluded that ACL-RSI was successfully translated and adapted into Danish, demonstrating good psychometric properties. It serves as a useful tool for clinicians to assess psychological readiness for RTS in athletes post-ACLR.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

\ud83d\udc68\u200d\ud83c\udf93 My own take on the article:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Remember to use objective testing and questionnaires as part of your test battery. Don’t only test at the end of the rehab, but continuously throughout the rehab. In our article, our recruitment strategy, our population, and other limitations have properly influenced our results. However, I am very concerned about the low scores we found in the Danish translation. It’s great that we now have a properly translated questionnaire, but we need to reflect on the results we are getting from our individual patients and have clear and realistic targets for what we expect moving forward. Maybe one questionnaire isn’t enough, perhaps different questionnaires at different stages. My clinical message is to use questionnaires as part of your rehabilitation journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

\ud83c\udf0d I’m looking forward to presenting this article further at the poster session at Sportskongres 2025. Early bird registration is closing soon for those who are thinking of attending.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
