Abstract

Having reasonable outcome measures is essential to unbiased research. For years, provider-measured outcomes have been valued as they are more objective and convenient for investigators. However, with the popularity of patient-centered medical care delivery, patient-reported outcome measures are appropriately becoming more popular in foot and ankle research.

Keywords: Patient-centered care; Patient-reported outcome; Radiographic measures; Reliability; Validity.
