Summary

Functional instability should be considered as a potential cause of residual ankle impairment and instability. Even if neuromuscular anomalies are detected, the precise cause of injury and the most efficient prevention strategies remain uncertain. The use of standardized and validated research instruments is strongly advocated. This is due in part to the idea that it allows for international and cross-national comparison of results. Another assumption is that utilizing validated tools increases confidence that they are measuring what they are intended to measure. However, a previously validated tool does not guarantee its applicability in a new period, culture, or setting. The rationale of study is to provide a valid and reliable tool translated into native language of Urdu speaking populations so that self-evaluation of ankle instability can be assessed and re-assessed over the time. The questionnaire is translated into various languages including; French, Japanese, Brazilian, Persian, Thai, Malay, Greek, Chinese, Korean, Turkish and Spanish; whereas, Pakistani Urdu version has not yet studied. The present study fills this literature gap and serves a large proportion of Urdu community around the globe; specially, Pakistan. By measuring the psychometric properties of this scale in Urdu version, quantitatively strengthens up the evidence and patients themselves can report their exact level of disorder by answering a set of questions in their own language.
