Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Jamar dynamometer | from baseline to the end of the treatment (4 week) | Jamar dynamometer will be used for grip strength. 3 repetitive measurements will be made and the average will be recorded.(in kilograms) |
| Jebsen Taylor Hand Function Test | from baseline to the end of the treatment (4 week) | Used to assess upper extremity functions. Activities are evaluated on a time basis. |
| visual analog scale (VAS) | from baseline to the end of the treatment (4 week) | marks the severity of pain between 0 and 10. |
| duruöz hand index | from baseline to the end of the treatment (4 week) | kitchen work, evaluates cleaning, workplace and other activities of daily living. The total score is between 0-90. |
| Sammes Weinstein Monofilament Test (SWMT) | from baseline to the end of the treatment (4 week) | sensory threshold is used for assessment.sensed monofilament values will be collected and recorded. The highest total score will be considered as 15. |
| Questionnaire Quick Disability of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand (Quick DASH) | from baseline to the end of the treatment (4 week) | activity participation level will be assessed by Q-DASH.Each question will be scored between 1-5 points (1: no difficulty, 2: mild difficulty, 3: medium difficulty, 4: extreme difficulty, 5: not at all). The total score will be recorded. |
