Addressing Ireland's high incidence of ACL injuries with gold-standard isokinetic dynamic strength testing, GAA & Rugby return-to-play benchmarking, and clinical support.
Epidemiological sports medicine data shows almost 1,000 Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) tears occur every year in Irelandacross Gaelic Games (Hurling & Gaelic Football), IRFU Rugby, and League of Ireland soccer. Preventing secondary graft re-rupture requires objective isokinetic Limb Symmetry Index (LSI >90%) verification prior to clearing athletes for full competitive contact.
Gaelic Football and Hurling involve high-velocity multi-directional cutting, high-impact collisions, and extreme deceleration demands. Objective isokinetic testing ensures that Irish athletes recovering from ACL reconstruction or hamstring strains possess the necessary eccentric deceleration capacity and dynamic control ratios (Hecc:Qcon≥ 1.0) before returning to pitch action.
Having established the scientific mechanics of constant velocity resistance and accommodating torque, Just Kinetics delivers these clinical capabilities through the TUR Isoforce® Multi-Joint Dynamometer. Isoforce serves as our contemporary hardware platform for continuous, computerized muscle strength assessment, supporting 20+ multi-joint movement patterns, 700 Nm max torque, and modern FHIR data interoperability.
