To analyze outcomes reported in trials of childhood fractures. OVID MEDLINE, Embase, and Cochrane CENTRAL databases were searched on the eighth August 2019. A manual search of trial registries, bibliographic review and internet search was used to identify additional studies. 11,476 studies were screened following PRISMA guidelines. 100 trials were included in the analysis. Data extraction was completed by two researchers for each trial. Study quality was not evaluated. Outcomes reported by trials were mapped onto domains in the World Health Organization (WHO) International Classification of Function framework.Aims
Methods
We present the validation of a translation into
Danish of the Oxford ankle foot questionnaire (OxAFQ). We followed the
Isis Pros guidelines for translation and pilot-tested the questionnaire
on ten children and their parents. Following modifications we tested
the validity of the final questionnaire on 82 children (36 boys
and 45 girls) with a mean age of 11.7 years (5.5 to 16.0) and their
parents. We tested the reliability (repeatability (test–retest),
child–parent agreement, internal consistency), feasibility (response
rate, time to completion, floor and ceiling effects) and construct
validity. The generic child health questionnaire was used for comparison.
We found good internal consistency for the physical and the school
and play domains, but lower internal consistency for the emotional domain.
Overall, good repeatability was found within children and parents
as well as agreement between children and parents. The OxAFQ was
fast and easy to complete, but we observed a tendency towards ceiling
effects in the school and play and emotional domains. To our knowledge
this is the first independent validation of the OxAFQ in any language.
We found it valid and feasible for use in the clinic to assess the
impact on children’s lives of foot and/or ankle disorders. It is
a valuable research tool. Cite this article:
