Abstract

The objective of this review article was to update the measurement properties and application of Foot function index (FFI) in orthopedic examination. There were studies found on description of FFI, short-form FFI, revised FFI and revised short-form FFI. Studies on measurement properties were on validity, reliability, and side-side reliability. Population-specific use was on rheumatoid foot deformities and post-surgical outcomes. There were studies on comparison with other measures such as SF-36, the Ankle Osteoarthritis Scale (AOS), and the American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) Ankle Hindfoot Score. Cross-cultural adaptation studies were on Italian, German and Taiwan-Chinese languages. The presented evidence suggested that FFI and its modified measures are valuable tools in evaluation of functional status and disability in orthopedic foot disorders.
