| American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Score (AOFAS) assessment: The American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) Ankle-Hindfoot Score is among the most commonly used instruments for measuring the outcome of treatment in patients who sustained a complex ankle or hindfoot injury. It combines a clinician-reported and a patient-reported part. Timepoint: Before the intervention, immediately and 72 hours after the intervention. Method of measurement: The American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Score (AOFAS) has a four-point Likert scale. The total score is divided into three sub-headings, which include pain, function and alignment. A maximum score of 100 is obtained by combining patient-reported pain and function scores and physician-assessed gait (in terms of alignment). | — |
