Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
Patients with upper limb paralysis begin contracture of the wrist joints and finger joints from early onset. Hypothesis was made that continued hand bathing could prevent joint contracture. We considered that the effectiveness of hand bathing for preventing contracture can be demonstrated by measuring changes in the range of joint movement (DIP, PIP, MP joint, wrist joint) of the treated group and the control group.	—
