Introduction
Functional assessment is when clinicians bring together their knowledge of foot and ankle anatomy with the history of a patient's injury: the type, the extent and the mechanism. The end result is a framework that contains a timeline for treatment, a list of further referrals if needed, a treatment plan and a treatment strategy. However, a detailed examination is key to a successful treatment.
Aims
This course aims to provide clinicians with foot and ankle assessment tools to develop successful treatment strategies.
