The FPI-6 is a novel method of rating foot posture using set criteria and a simple scale.
 
It is a measure of standing foot posture and so is not a replacement for gait assessment where time and facilities exist. It is however a more valid approach than many of the static weightbearing and non-weightbearing goniometric measures currently used in clinic.

Objective
[edit | edit source]

The FPI-6 is a novel method of rating foot posture using set criteria and a simple scale. It is a measure of standing foot posture and so is not a replacement for gait assessment where time and facilities exist. It is however a more valid approach than many of the static weightbearing and non-weightbearing goniometric measures currently used in clinic.

Reliability[edit | edit source]

The FPI-6 is a quick, simple and reliable clinical tool which has demonstrated good inter-rater reliability when used in the assessment of the paediatric foot[1].

Validity[edit | edit source]

The FPI-6 has been subjected to evaluation against the Rasch statistical model. This analysis confirms the construct validity of the six-item instrument and the linearity of the metric output[2].
