Objective[edit | edit source]
The Cumberland Ankle Instability Tool (CAIT) is a 9-item 30-point scale that numerically measures the presence and severity of functional ankle instability.[1]
Intended Population[edit | edit source]
CAIT is a valid and reliable tool used to assess the severity of functional ankle instability, measure treatment outcomes, and monitor progress among individuals with chronic ankle instability.[1]
Cross Cultural Adaptations[edit | edit source]
Originally designed by Hiller et al[1] in English, the CAIT has been translated and validated in other languages:
Method of Use[edit | edit source]
Scoring[edit | edit source]
The nine items of CAIT generate a total score of 30.
- 0 indicates an extreme functional ankle instability
- 30 points indicates a stable ankle
The original study established a cutoff score of ≤ 27 to identify those with chronic ankle instability, however, a recent study by suggest
