Foot Outcomes measures
I let my frustration show a bit here:
Another bl....y outcome measure for the foot
"Does anyone share my frustraton at the plethora of outcome tools that have been developed for the foot . When will it stop? When will people actually stop developing them and start doing research that actually uses them."
" It just seems as though people are more keen to develop yet another outcome tool, rather than spend that time using the ones we have. .... why waste resources reinventing the wheel? We should be getting on with doing research on, for eg, diferences in outcomes between 2 interventions using outcome tools we now have, rather than develop new tools to measure the outcomes!!"
It followed the publication of yet another tool for measuring outcomes in the foot.
