简要总结
The purpose of the study is to examine whether patients with heel spurs for more than 6 months, who have been treated conservatively, have better effect of surgery than further conservative treatment. The study is performed as a randomized trial with the inclusion of 32 patients divided between open plantar fasciectomy and conservative treatment.
The primary endpoint is Self-Reported-Foot-And-Ankle Score (SEFAS-score) after 24 months.
Secondary endpoints includes: Pain (Visual analogue score) at first step, rest and activity after 3, 6, 12 and 24 months, SEFAS-score after 3, 6 og 12 months, changes in gait after 6 months (measured with gait-analysis). All endpoints are measured at inclusion.
The power calculation is based on the assumption that surgical treatment gives an improvement in SEFAS-score of 10 points (SD 7.9) after 24 months when compared to conservative treatment together with an alpha-value of 5 % and a beta value of 90 %.

结局指标
主要结局
Self-Reported-Foot-And-Ankle Score (SEFAS)
时间窗: 24 Months
The questionnaire contains 12 items with 5 response options. The questionnaire covers different constructs, which are not reported separately in subscales. The most important of these constructs are pain, function, and limitation of function. Each of the 12 multiple-choice questions scores from 0 to 4 where a sum of 0 points represents the most severe disability and 48 represents normal function.
