Clinical ROM assessments were collected at multiple time points. Patients were grouped into cohorts based on timing of LOA. Comparative analysis was performed to assess for relationships between ROM and timing of intervention.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Seventy-nine patients underwent LOA after ACLR: 25 patients who had a time from ACLR to LOA &lt;3 months, 23 patients between 3 and 6 months, and 31 patients &gt;6 months. Earlier LOA was associated with greater total loss of motion before LOA. The final total arc of motion was 132.7\u00b0, 133.7\u00b0, and 131.8\u00b0 for patients who had a time from ACLR to LOA &lt;3 months, between 3 and 6 months, and &gt;6 months, respectively.
