Background and purpose - The lower extremity functional scale (LEFS) is a well-known validated instrument for measurement of function. LEFS was developed in group patients with various musculoskeletal disorders, no reference data the healthy population are available. Here we provide normative LEFS. Methods Healthy visitors staff at 4 hospitals were requested to participate. A minimum 250 volunteers had be included each hospital. Participants excluded if they undergone surgery within 1 year...
