Summary

A randomised, controlled trial will be performed by allocating 40 years or older patients with symptomatic hallux rigidus to arthrodesis or watchful waiting group in a ratio of 1:1. Our primary outcome will be pain during walking, assessed by the 0-10 Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) at one year after randomisation. Our secondary outcomes will be pain in rest (NRS), physical function (MOXFQ), patient satisfaction in terms of Patient-accepted Symptom State (PASS), health-related quality of life (EQ-5D-5L), activity level (The Foot and Ankle Ability Measure Sports subscale), use of analgesics or orthoses and rate of complications. Our null hypothesis is that there will be no difference between arthrodesis and watchful waiting in treatment of hallux rigidus. Our primary analysis will be done using intention-to-treat principle.
