| function ability by using DASHThe disabilities of the arm, shoulder and hand (DASH) questionnaire is a self-administered region-specific outcome instrument developed as a measure of self-rated upper-extremity disability and symptoms. The DASH consists mainly of a 30-item disability/symptom scale, scored 0 (no disability) to 100. This 30-item disability/symptom scale is concerning the patient's health status during the preceding week. The items ask about the degree of difficulty in performing different physical activities because of the arm, shoulder, or hand problem (21 items), the severity of each of the symptoms of pain, activity-related pain, tingling, weakness and stiffness (5 items), as well as the problem's impact on social activities, work, sleep, and self-image (4 items). Each item has five response options. The scores for all items are then used to calculate a scale score ranging from 0 (no disability) to 100 (most severe disability). The score for the disability/symptom scale is called the DASH score. In this study we used the Arabic version of the DASH. The DASH-Arabic is a reliable, valid and responsive upper extremityoutcome measure for patients whose primary language is Arabic; it can be used to documentpatient status and outcomes and support evidence-based practice.DASH-Arabic is shown to have sound psychometric properties among Arabic-speaking patients with upper extremity conditions | — |
