FAAM

The Foot and Ankle Ability Measure assesses physical function for individuals with foot and ankle related impairments

Instructions:

The FAAM should be self-administered and typically takes 5-10 minutes to complete. Patients should answer all questions based on their foot and ankle function over the past week. If patients have not performed a specific activity in the past week, they should estimate their perceived ability to perform that activity. The "Not Applicable" option should only be used if the activity is truly not relevant to the patient (e.g., sports questions for non-athletes). For bilateral conditions, patients should rate the function of their more symptomatic foot/ankle. The questionnaire can be completed on paper, electronically, or via interview. All questions should be answered for optimal scoring accuracy.
