Abstract

Background

The Score Committee of the European Foot and Ankle Society (EFAS) developed, validated, and published the EFAS Score in 13 languages. Currently, the Danish version completed data acquisition and underwent further validation.

Methods

The data were collected pre-operatively and post-operatively at a minimum follow-up of 3 months and mean follow-up of 6 months. Item reduction, scale exploration, confirmatory analyses and responsiveness were executed using classical test theory and item response theory.

Results

The internal consistency was confirmed in the Danish version (Cronbach’s Alpha 0.88). The Standard Error of Measurement (SEM) was 0.31 and is similar to other language versions. Between baseline and follow-up, 77.2% of patients showed an improvement on their EFAS score, with adequate responsiveness (effect size 1.05).

Conclusions

The Danish EFAS Score version was successfully validated in patients with a wide variety of foot and ankle pathologies. All score versions are freely available at www.efas.net.

EFAS 评分 - 欧洲足踝协会评分委员会对丹麦版本的验证

背景欧洲足踝协会（EFAS）评分委员会开发、验证并发布了 13 种语言的 EFAS 评分。目前，丹麦语版本已完成数据采集并进行了进一步验证。方法数据采集于术前和术后，随访时间最短为 3 个月，平均为 6 个月。采用经典测验理论和项目反应理论进行了项目缩减、量表探索、确认分析和反应性分析。结果丹麦语版本的内部一致性得到确认（Cronbach's Alpha 0.88）。测量标准误差（SEM）为 0.31，与其他语言版本相似。从基线到随访期间，77.2%的患者的 EFAS 得分有所提高，且反应灵敏（效应大小为 1.05）。所有评分版本均可在 www.efas.net 免费获取。
