Ankle Fracture (Isolated) Clinical Trial
Official title:
The Role of Patient Expectations in Traumatic Orthopedic Outcomes TEFTOM: The Trauma Expectation Factor - Trauma Outcomes Measure TEFTOM EURASIA
Design:
Prediction trial, up to 10 sites in Asia and Europe
Goal:
To better understand the "success" or "failure" after orthopedic trauma surgery by
developing a model that can be applied clinically as a user-friendly "baseline"
questionnaire - capable of predicting "success" or "failure" based on a patient's
pre-surgical expectations of their final outcome and to validate a novel outcomes measure
(TOM).
Primary aim:
To assess the psychometric properties of predictive validity, internal consistency and
reproducibility of the trauma expectation factor (TEF) in the Eurasian population.
Secondary aim:
To assess the psychometric properties of criterion validity, internal
consistency,reproducibility, and sensitivity to change of the TOM in the Eurasian
population.
Key questions related to patient and surgeon expectations:
- How different, or similar, are patient and surgeon expectations?
- Do expectations change over time?
- Do patient expectations predict outcomes in validated measures use today?
