Outcome measurement is an essential component for defining the effectiveness of clinicians’ practice (Reiman 1988) and standardised measures make that job more consistent, comparable and valid (Cole et al 1994). Hand therapists have long recognised the need for the standardisation of outcome measures, particularly for performance-based measures such as strength testing (Mathiowetz et al 1985,…

An innervated hand is fundamental to our everyday activities. Motor competence aids manual dexterity and sensory proficiency is essential for tactile gnosis. Peripheral nerve injuries are a major source of chronic disability and all effort should be made to optimise functional recovery. Thorough motor and sensory assessment will define the extent of an injury and…
Over the past ten years, mirror visual feedback has been reported as a new treatment modality for chronic pain by several authors using different methods. Pioneering studies of mirror therapy for different clinical problems and its application in key studies are presented. Mirror therapy (MT) involves the use of the non-injured side reflected in the…
Following surgical repair of major nerve trunks there is a rapid functional reorganisation in the brain, characterised by a changed cortical mapping of the hand secondary to incorrect reinnervation of peripheral targets. Sensory re-educational programmes are used in the rehabilitation phase to facilitate and positively influence the re-learning process, which is required to make possible…
This study evaluated the relationship between physical factors (age, sex, hand size and dominance, height and weight) and both grip strength and dexterity. Ninety healthy subjects without current upper extremity pathology or injuries were recruited. Anthropometric measures of the hand were taken using the NK Micrometer, grip strength using the NK Digit-Grip, and dexterity (small,…
