Utilization of validated outcome scores in evaluating treatment of osteochondral lesions: A comparison of ankle versus knee literature

Back to course

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The video discusses the use of functional outcome scores in determining the effectiveness of treatments for ankle osteochondral lesions. The speaker highlights the lack of consensus on which metric to use and the dominant use of the AOFAS clinical rating system, despite its lack of validity and reliability. The study compares the use of validated outcome scores in the ankle and knee literature from 2011 to 2020. In the knee literature, validated scores were commonly used, while in the ankle literature, they were rarely utilized. The low frequency of validated outcome scores in ankle literature may hinder the evaluation of treatment effectiveness.
