About this trial
The goal of this study is to demonstrate the safety and performance of the Incompass™ Total Ankle System after surgery over the standard follow-up period. The study will measure improvements in patient-reported information related to quality of life and pain following surgery. In order to do this, medical imaging (i.e. X-Rays, CT scans) which have been taken as part of routine care, will be reviewed. Any additional X-Rays conducted during the period of the research will also be reviewed.
The Incompass™ Total Ankle System has been cleared by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The products are already in use routinely in ankle replacement surgeries. No part of this study is experimental.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Ankle Osteoarthritis Scale (AOS)
The AOS questionnaire consists of two 9-item subscales: one for pain and one for disability. Each subscale uses a visual analogue scale where patients mark a point on a 100mm horizontal line anchored by "No pain" and "Worst pain imaginable" for pain, or "No difficulty" and "So difficult unable" for disability
Secondary outcomes
Foot and Ankle Ability Measure (FAAM)
The FAAM has 29 questions and two components that are scored independently: an Activities of Daily Living (ADL) subscale and a Sports subscale. Each subscale is scored from 0 to 100 points, with higher scores representing better function.
PROMIS Scale v1.2- Global Physical Health Score
The PROMIS Global-10 is a 10-item patient-reported questionnaire in which the response options are presented as 5-point (as well as a single 11-point) rating scales. The results of the questions are used to calculate two summary scores: a Global Physical Health Score and a Global Mental Health score. These scores are then standardized to the general population, using the "T-Score." The average "TScore" for the United States population is 50 points, with a standard deviation of 10 points. Higher scores indicate a healthier patient.
PROMIS Scale v1.2- Global Mental Health Score
The PROMIS Global-10 is a 10-item patient-reported questionnaire in which the response options are presented as 5-point (as well as a single 11-point) rating scales. The results of the questions are used to calculate two summary scores: a Global Physical Health Score and a Global Mental Health score. These scores are then standardized to the general population, using the "T-Score." The average "TScore" for the United States population is 50 points, with a standard deviation of 10 points. Higher scores indicate a healthier patient.
TAR Satisfaction
Patient satisfaction with the Incompass™ Total Ankle System post-operatively is assessed utilizing a four-point scale: excellent, good, fair and poor.
