Pamukkale University
34 participants

OBSERVATIONAL
Summary
Patient-reported outcome measures, which are subjective by nature, need to be correlated with clinician-administered professional measurements as a further step toward expanding their clinical utility. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the relationship between perceived manual dexterity and functional measurements in patients with hand-forearm injuries.

- Being voluntary to participate in the study.
Exclusion Criteria3

Interventions
The Modified Hand Injury Severity Score is used to determine the severity level of patients' injuries. At the 6th and 12th weeks following the injury or surgery, patients are administered the Manual Ability Measure-36 questionnaire, and the Jebsen-Taylor Hand Function Test and Nine-Hole Peg Test are performed. Additionally, the grip strength of the subjects is evaluated at the 12th week.
