Shared decision-making is commonly used in return to sports decision after ACL reconstruction; however, this model also applies to acute ACL injury, including treatment pathways and the decision for operative vs. non-operative management. Discussion will include how to share the best available evidence and work together to support your patients/athletes in considering their treatment options after ACL injury.

  1. Define shared decision-making and identify strategies to implement it within the context of acute ACL injuries
