Brief Summary: A total Achilles tendon rupture is a common injury most often occuring in people aged between 30 and 50 years The injury is more common amongst men than women ratio 31 and typically occur during sports activities involving excentric andor plyometric muscle work in plantar flexion of the foot eg jumping sprinting change of directions

Overall there is no significant difference in treatment outcomes between surgical and non-surgical treatment besides a slightly greater risk of adverse events in surgical treatment and a small increased risk of re-rupture in non-surgical treatment Several studies have investigated the importance of rehabilitation protocols without outcome differences between groups comparing more or less aggressive strategies

Achilles tendon rupture often leads to significant limitations in functional level Some of the most common used outcome measures for functional status are the heel rise tests evaluating endurance and maximum heel rise height Studies using these tests often shows substantial deficits several years after the injury

The purpose of this study is to investigate factors associated with functional status after rehabilitation
