Abstract
The American College of Foot and Ankle Surgeons presents the Universal Evaluation Scoring System to evaluate parameters related to foot and ankle surgery. This instrument was developed primarily to allow investigators a means of consistency in clinical assessments. The project was developed in four sections or modules. The first of these modules, First Metatarsophalangeal Joint and First Ray, is presented. This project is unique in that it is the first clinical scoring system of the foot and ankle to become validated by statistical analysis.
