dc.description.abstractMovement patterns are altered after an anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction and rehabilitation, which could increase the risk for a second rupture. Therefore, rehabilitation needs to be improved. The use of exergaming and virtual reality has shown promising results in the rehabilitation of chronic disease patients, but not yet with patients after musculoskeletal injuries. The aim of this thesis was to investigate the biomechanical movement quality and the potential risk of an anterior cruciate ligament (re-) rupture during a training with the ExerCube, an exergaming device. Biomechanical movement patterns of female healthy athletes (n = 7) of five different type of sports were investigated. Measured biomechanical risk factors during jumps, squats, left, and right lunges were knee flexion angle (fraction between 10° and 30°) and knee adduction angle, while the investigated biomechanical protective factor was the hip flexion angle. Additionally, knee extensor and flexor strength were measured with isokinetic dynamometry. Participants showed low knee extensor strength and normal knee flexor strength. Both risk factors were present in all four exercises, even though to a different extent, whereas the protective factor was found only during the squat and the jump or lunge of some participants. Strain on the anterior cruciate ligament during the squat and lunge is controllable, but during the jump explosive movements create a high amount of loading. It can therefore be concluded that the squat and lunge can be performed during later stages of rehabilitation, but it is not recommended to perform a jump in the ExerCube training environment.de_CH
