“…Initially, the researchers assessed the electronic medical records of the 18 patients who underwent the minimally invasive technique during the study period, who were contacted by phone and invited to participate in the research. Next, those who agree to participate were evaluated using the following instruments: the American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) scale (7) , which analyzes pain, functionality, maximum walking distance in blocks, walking surfaces, gain abnormality, sagittal mobility (flexion and extension), hindfoot mobility (inversion and eversion), ankle-hindfoot stability, and alignment; and the Foot Function Index (FFI) questionnaire (8) , initially developed in English and subsequently trans-lated into Portuguese and revised, in order to assess foot functionality in patients with musculoskeletal injuries.…”

Objective: To assess the degree of postoperative satisfaction of patients with acute Achilles tendon rupture who underwent surgical reconstruction by a minimally invasive technique using Tenolig®. Methods: A retrospective observational study was conducted with 18 patients with acute Achilles tendon rupture diagnosed by a positive Thompson test who underwent surgery. Outcomes were assessed using the American arthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) score and the Foot Function Index (FFI). Furthermore, quantitative variables were descriptively treated, and patients’ age was correlated with FII and AOFAS score using Spearman’s correlation coefficient at a significance level of 5%. Results: Patients underwent surgery from one to six days after injury and were discharged one day later. Only one patient had a superficial postoperative infection. Patients’ AOFAS scores ranged from 75 to 100 points, and FFI ranged from 0 to 20%. The patient withsuperficial postoperative infection had an AOFAS score and a FFI of 75 points and 20%, respectively. Conclusion: Percutaneous repair of complete Achilles tendon rupture with Tenolig® resulted in high functional scores and a low rate of complications. Level of Evidence IV; Therapeutic Studies; Case Series.

Objective: To assess the effectiveness of customized insole in patients with Morton’s neuroma. Design: Double-blind randomized controlled trial with intent-to-treat analysis. Setting: Outpatients, University Hospital. Subjects: A total of 72 patients with Morton’s neuroma met the inclusion criteria and were randomly allocated to either the study group ( n = 36) or the control group ( n = 36). Interventions: The study group was assigned to use a customized insole with metatarsal and arch support made of ethyl vinyl acetate and the control group received a flat insole of the same material, color, and density. Main measures: The primary outcome measure was walking pain intensity measured by the visual analogue scale. The secondary outcomes were as follows: pain at rest, palpation, and paresthesia (visual analogue scale); functional disability (6-minute walk test, Foot Function Index, and Foot Health Status Questionnaire); quality of life (Health Survey Short Form-36 (SF-36)); and foot pressure (AM Cube FootWalk Pro program). Results: In the comparison between the groups over time, a statistically significant difference, with improvement in favor of the experimental group, was found for pain during walking ( P = 0.048); in the general health domains ( P < 0.001) and physical activity ( P = 0.025) of the Foot Health Status Questionnaire; in the general Foot Function Index score ( P = 0.012); and in the functional capacity domain of the SF-36 questionnaire ( P = 0.046). For the other parameters, no difference was found between groups. Conclusion: The study demonstrated that customized insole with metatarsal and arch support relieved walking pain and improved patient-reported measures of function in patients with Morton’s neuroma.

“…Several measures of functioning and quality of life after foot and ankle injuries have been developed and validated for use in Portuguese, such as the Foot and Ankle Outcome Score (FAOS) (8) , the Foot Function Index (FFI) (9) , and the Short-Form 12 (SF-12) (10) . However, these are general questionnaires and do not evaluate a specific type of injury.…”

“…To facilitate cross-cultural comparisons, it is crucial to adapt this instrument to the Brazilian population and establish its equivalence to the original instrument (9,14) . This will include adjusting the OMAS to a different language, population, culture, and setting.…”

Objective:The aim of this study was to perform the translation and cultural adaptation of the Olerud-Molander Ankle Score (OMAS) in Brazilian Portuguese, in addition to determining its validity and reliability. Methods: This was a cross-sectional case-series study. The translation and adaptation processes were conducted in 5 stages: initial translation (2 bilingual Brazilians); synthesis of translations; back translation (2 bilingual Brazilians not involved in the first part of the study); consensus version and assessment (technical committee); and testing phase. The test-retest reliability and construct validity of the Brazilian Portuguese version of the OMAS (OMAS BrP) were evaluated in a sample of 40 participants. Construct validity was determined based on the correlations of the OMAS-BrP to the Foot Function Index (FFI) and Short-Form 12 (SF-12). Results: The OMAS-BrP had excellent test-retest reliability (ICC=0.99). The OMAS-BrP showed moderate and weak correlations with the SF 12 PCS and SF-12 MCS (r=0.68 and p<0.001; r=0.38 and p=0.014, respectively). The correlation coefficient between the OMAS-BrP and the FFI was graded as excellent (r=-0.846 and p<0.001). There was a strong correlation between the OMAS-BrP, the SF-12 PCS, and the FFI. Conclusion: The OMAS-BrP is a valid and reliable questionnaire, with psychometric parameters that are similar to those of its original version and other cross cultural adaptations. The OMAS-BrP is a useful patient-reported outcome (PRO) measure to evaluate Brazilian Portuguese-speaking patients with ankle fractures. Level of Evidence IV; Therapeutic Studies; Case Series.
