The squat: An excellent final-phase knee rehabilitative assessment tool

Abstract
During the last 30 years, physiotherapy and biokinetic rehabilitation has moved away from traditional isolated assessments to integrative functional screenings, viewing joint stability from a dynamic multi-planar perspective. An integrative functional final-phase knee rehabilitative assessment is needed to determine the quality of the rehabilitative progress, hence the authors� proposed the squat as this assessment tool. The squat is a popular closed kinetic chain exercise that has been judiciously applied in the double stance closed-kinetic-chain rehabilitation of knee injuries. However, it is postulated that the squat can extend as a final-phase-rehabilitative tool to assess whether the patient is ready to commence with open-kinetic chain-exercises.Biography
