Description

The SOFARI registry is the clinical registry for a collaborative group of foot and ankle surgeons in private practice. For this registry, clinical data is compiled alongside Patient Reported Outcome Measures (PROMs) for patients diagnosed with conditions of the foot and ankle. Clinical history, treatment characteristics, functional and patient-reported outcomes are assessed against pre-determined ‘failure to cure’ criteria, consisting of a combination of validated outcome measures and clinically relevant improvement thresholds (eg. minimum clinically important differences).
