  • Effective hand rehabilitation and return-to-work planning depend on accurate functional evaluation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To emphasize the need for caution when using dexterity as a measure of hand function.
  • To explore the critical factors influencing successful hand function evaluation.
  • To inform the development of more effective hand rehabilitation and return-to-work strategies.

Main Methods:

  • Pilot study design.
  • Qualitative analysis of dexterity assessment.
  • Consideration of work strategies and workstation analysis.

Main Results:

  • Dexterity evaluation necessitates a cautious approach.
  • Defining dexterity is crucial for accurate assessment.
  • Work strategies and workstation analysis are important factors in hand function.

Conclusions:

  • Hand function assessment requires a nuanced understanding of dexterity.
  • Comprehensive evaluation, including work-specific factors, is vital for rehabilitation planning.
  • This study underscores the importance of a holistic approach to returning individuals to work after hand injury.
