Abstract Background High-quality evidence is lacking to support one treatment strategy over another in patients with foot drop due to peroneal nerve entrapment. This leads to strong variation in daily practice. Methods/design The FOOTDROP (Follow-up and Outcome of Operative Treatment with Decompressive Release Of The Peroneal nerve) trial is a randomized, multi-centre study in which patients with peroneal nerve entrapment and persistent foot drop, despite initial conservative treatment, will be randomized 10 (± 4) weeks after onset between non-invasive treatment and surgical decompression. The primary endpoint is the difference in distance covered during the 6-min walk test between randomization and 9 months later. Time to recovery is the key secondary endpoint. Other secondary outcome measures encompass ankle dorsiflexion strength (MRC score and isometric dynamometry), gait assessment (10-m walk test, functional ambulation categories, Stanmore questionnaire), patient-reported outcome measures (EQ5D-5L), surgical complications, neurological deficits (sensory changes, motor scores for ankle eversion and hallux extension), health economic assessment (WPAI) and electrodiagnostic assessment. Discussion The results of this randomized trial may elucidate the role of surgical decompression of the peroneal nerve and aid in clinical decision-making. Trial registration ClinicalTrials.gov NCT04695834. Registered on 4 January 2021. |
