Brief Summary
Ankle sprain in children is a very common pathology. Currently in France, a standard X-ray is done in almost all cases. However, the literature has for several years validated the consideration of the Ottawa ankle rules in children to avoid the realization of these X-rays. Our study is an evaluation of clinical practice. The aim is to assess the impact of the implementation of a new protocol using the Ottawa ankle rules from the age of 5. In particular, radiographic sparing and absence of diagnostic error.
