Show Notes
About 50% of people who have an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury will go on to develop osteoarthritis later down the track. What determines who will go on to develop OA? And is it possible to reduce your risk of developing OA? On this week’s episode, Dr Adam Culvenor joins us to discuss.
Dr Adam Culvenor is a Senior Research Fellow and Head of the Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) Knee Injury Group within the La Trobe Sport and Exercise Medicine Research Centre. His research focuses on the outcomes of ACL injuries, in particular the prevention and management of early knee osteoarthritis in young adults following ACL injury and reconstruction.
