“…Patient reported outcome measures (PROMs) are questionnaires answered by the patients themselves, and they are becoming increasingly popular when evaluating treatment results and patients satisfaction in clinical studies. The acute Achilles tendon Rupture Score (ATRS) is a PROM developed to assess outcomes in patients who have undergone treatment for acute Achilles tendon ruptures [13], and it has been validated in Swedish, English, Danish, Turkish, Persian, Dutch, Brazilian Portuguese and Italian [1, 4, 7, 9, 13, 15, 19, 21]. There are presently no PROMs in Norwegian validated for assessing outcomes after Achilles tendon injuries, and the purpose of this study was to translate and validate a Norwegian version of the ATRS.…”
