Summary

Ankle fractures are common injuries that can affect a patient's mobility, mood, sleep, and everyday life for months. The Ankle Fracture Outcome of Rehabilitation Measure (A-FORM) is an English-language patient-reported outcome measure developed in Australia to capture this broader rehabilitation experience. No validated Turkish version of A-FORM currently exists. This prospective multi-centre observational study aims to translate the A-FORM into Turkish (A-FORM-TR), culturally adapt it for use in Turkish-speaking patients, and evaluate its psychometric properties. The investigators will recruit 150 adults with a unilateral ankle fracture, treated either surgically or conservatively, from three orthopedic centres in Turkiye and the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus. Participants complete the A-FORM-TR together with two established comparator questionnaires (AOFAS Ankle-Hindfoot Score and the Turkish Olerud-Molander Ankle Score). A subset of approximately 50 participants is re-administered the A-FORM-TR after 7 to 14 days to assess test-retest reliability, with a Global Rating of Change item identifying clinically stable patients. Analyses include classical test theory, confirmatory factor analysis, and Rasch measurement analysis.
