Overview
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.
