“…Primary outcome. The primary outcome, ADL performance, was assessed with the validated Dutch-Flemish Patient Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System -Upper Extremity (DF-PROMIS-UE) (17,18) and with the ADL domain of the valid and reliable Michigan Hand Questionnaire -Dutch language version (MHQ-DLV) (19)(20)(21). For the DF-PROMIS-UE, a custom short form (25 items) was created from the original 46-item bank.…”

Objective: To assess the preliminary effectiveness of three-dimensional printed orthoses compared with conventionally custom-fabricated orthoses in persons with chronic hand conditions on performance of daily activities, hand function, quality of life, satisfaction, and production time and costs. Design: Interventional feasibility study. Subjects: Chronic hand orthotic users (n = 21). Methods: Participants received a new three-dimensional printed orthosis according to the same type as their current orthosis, which served as the control condition. Primary outcome was performance of daily activities (Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System–Upper Extremity; Michigan Hand Questionnaire). Secondary outcomes were hand function, quality of life, and satisfaction. Furthermore, production time and costs were recorded. Results: At 4 months’ follow-up, no significant differences were found between three-dimensional printed orthoses and participants’ existing conventional orthoses on activity performance, hand function, and quality of life. Satisfaction with the three-dimensional printed orthosis was significantly higher and the production time and costs for three-dimensional printed orthoses were significantly lower compared with conventional orthoses. The three-dimensional printed orthosis was preferred by 79% of the participants. Conclusions: This feasibility study in chronic hand conditions suggests that three-dimensional printed orthoses are similar to conventional orthoses in terms of activity performance, hand function, and quality of life. Satisfaction, and production time and costs favoured the three-dimensional printed hand orthoses.

“…Outcome measures such as the Michigan Hand Outcomes Questionnaire (MHQ), the Duruöz Hand Index (DHI), the Disability of Arm-Shoulder-Hand questionnaire (DASH), the Patient-Rated Wrist Evaluation questionnaire (PRWE), the Carpal Tunnel Questionnaire scales (CTQ), the ABILHAND questionnaire, the Purdue Pegboard Test, and the Sollerman Hand Function Test (SHFT) are most commonly used for orthopedic patients, following wrist surgery, carpal tunnel syndrome, and rheumatoid arthritis. It is noticeable that clinicians are increasingly turning to these tests, scales, and questionnaires, seeing in them the potential to show objective results of rehabilitation in neurological patients [108,109,[113][114][115][116][117]123,124,129,131,132,138,[142][143][144][145][146][147]. Fine motor training, crucial in neurological rehabilitation, is used in occupational therapy, in which a task-based approach can be used.…”

There is a wide variety of tools and measures for rehabilitation outcomes in post-stroke patients with impairments in the upper limb and hand, such as paralysis, paresis, flaccidity, and spasticity. However, there is a lack of general recommendations for selecting the most appropriate scales, tests, and instruments to objectively evaluate therapy outcomes. Reviews on upper limb and hand measurements reveal that clinicians’ choices of tools and methods are highly varied. Some clinicians and medical teams continue to employ non-standard and unverified metrics in their research and measurements. This review article aims to identify the key parameters, assessed by outcome measures and instruments, that play a crucial role in upper limb and hand rehabilitation for post-stroke patients, specifically focusing on the recovery of hand function. The review seeks to assist researchers and medical teams in selecting appropriate outcome measures when evaluating post-stroke patients. We analyze the measured factors and skills found in these outcome measures and highlight useful tools that diversify assessments and enhance result objectivity through graphical representation. The paper also describes trends and new possibilities in hand outcome measures. Clinicians frequently use proven devices, such as EMG, goniometers, and hand dynamometers. Still, there is a growing trend towards incorporating technologies, such as pose and position estimation, using artificial intelligence, or custom hand grip measurement devices. Researchers are increasingly adopting scales previously successful in orthopedic and surgical patients, recognizing their potential for objectivizing outcomes in neurological patients with post-stroke hand complications. The review included only adults over the age of 18. Outcome measures were tested for usefulness in the rehabilitation of stroke patients.
