Manual Dexterity Is Associated With Use of the Paretic Upper Extremity in Community-Dwelling Individuals With Stroke

Abstract: Background and Purpose: Regarding people with stroke, simple outcome measures in clinical settings capable of representing the actual use of the upper extremity (UE) would be useful to rehabilitation professionals for the purposes of goal setting. This study seeks to describe the relative levels of paretic UE use, investigate the association between manual dexterity and task-related UE use, and to establish the manual dexterity cutoff points that correspond to relative levels of paretic UE use. Methods: Forty-… Show more

“…The clusters are presented with the "lowest" overall UL performance within the first column and the "highest" overall UL performance in the last column. The 5-clusters become categories of UL performance and are named based on a synthesis of information from other publications that have described UL performance in daily life (45,56,57) not on the underlying PCA dimensions. The cluster names were chosen as intuitively as possible and represent the overall amount of UL activity and integration of the ULs into daily life activities (see Discussion for further interpretation).…”

“…For example, two neurologically intact older adults may have very different activities of daily living and leisure activities (e.g., swimming vs. knitting) but would both be considered to have "normal" UL performance. In other efforts to categorize UL activity, some groups have found four categories (54,55,57), and others have found six (56). These analyses however tended to examine only the separation of UL activity of persons with stroke.…”
