The Role of Patient Expectations in Traumatic Orthopedic Outcomes-TEFTOM EURASIA

Design: Prediction trial, up to 10 sites in Asia and Europe Goal: To better understand the "success" or "failure" after orthopedic trauma surgery by developing a model that can be applied clinically as a user-friendly "baseline" questionnaire - capable of predicting "success" or "failure" based on a patient's pre-surgical expectations of their final outcome and to validate a novel outcomes measure (TOM). Primary aim: To assess the psychometric properties of predictive validity, internal consistency and reproducibility of the trauma expectation factor (TEF) in the Eurasian population. Secondary aim: To assess the psychometric properties of criterion validity, internal consistency,reproducibility, and sensitivity to change of the TOM in the Eurasian population. Key questions related to patient and surgeon expectations: * How different, or similar, are patient and surgeon expectations? * Do expectations change over time? * Do patient expectations predict outcomes in validated measures use today?
