Which hand outcome measurement is best for Turkish speaking patients
Öz
Methods: The study included 74 patients with various types of hand injuries. Patients filled out the DASH-Turkish, MHQ and MAS questionnaires. Grip strength and pain intensity were also assessed.
Results: MAS parameters were well-correlated with DASH-Turkish and grip strength (p<0.05). MHQ was correlated with all other outcomes except the left hand part.
Conclusion: The DASH, MHQ and MAS questionnaires are culturally compatible with the Turkish population and have revealed a good correlation. These results suggest that these outcome instruments can be used in the assessment of hand and wrist surgery outcomes in the Turkish population.
