  • Rehabilitation in the Sheep Model - ACL Reconstruction

    Hello Subscribers,

    I am putting together a proposal for a study on ACL-healing after reconstruction in a sheep model. Unfortunately I have not worked with animals before and I have a couple of questions about the logistics of such an experiment.

    What is the duration and composition of a post-operative rehabilitation program in sheep? (frequency, intensity, duration etc)

    Are the key measures used in gait analysis for human ACL-reconstruction still valid in sheep? Are there any important differences that should be considered?

    What are the key logistic/cost considerations for a sheep study?


    Many thanks in advance
