Intervention
Outcome measures
Primary outcome
A predictionmodel based on patient specific characteristics and ankle joint geometry.
Secondary outcome
Inter- and intrarater reliability of assessment of the joint geometry on x-rays.
Correlation of acute symptoms after the ankle sprain with recovery
Correlation of treatment given after the ankle sprain with recovery
Improvement of FAOS and CAIT score over time after a visit to the Emergency Department (ER)
Background summary
Chronic ankle instability is a common result of an ankle sprain. The patients we see at the orthopaedics department often suffer from complaints for an unnessesarily long period of time. Additionally the longer the period of complaints and recurrent sprains, the lower the chance of surgical succes. We are going to develop a prediction model to assess which factors contribute to chronicity. This way patients with a greater chance on chronic instability can be identified and may become eligible for early surgical stabilization.
Study objective
Both personal factors and joint geometry contribute to the development of chronic ankle instability.
Study design
Questionnaires will be sent 2 weeks after the ER visit, and after 3 and 6 months.
Intervention
None
