The Ottawa ankle rule is an excellent screening tool for patients with ankle and foot injuries. In this study, it was found to have a sensitivity of 100 percent and is therefore unlikely to miss clinically significant ankle and midfoot injuries.These simple rules allowed physicians to safely reduce the number of radiographs ordered in patients with ankle and foot injuries by nearly a third. #Diagnosis #Management #EM #Ortho #Sports #Ottawa #Ankle #Foot #Rule
