United States30 participantsStarted 2017-11-13

Plain-language summary

The aim of this study is to examine the development of a conceptual framework and provide evidence for reliability of a comprehensive hand therapy evaluation score. This approach provides a new standardized tool for upper extremity (UE) evaluation. Components of Pain, Range of Motion (ROM), Edema, Sensibility, Strength (PRESS), and self-reported Function were combined to create a baseline. Each assessment tool used for the PRESS to Function Approach assists in determining appropriate interventions.
