Resumo: Objective: to develop a functional evaluation questionnaire to limitations in hand function by western adults individuals with lesions of the ulnar, median or radial nerves in their routine tasks. Design: an interview was conducted with 50 patients of 21-65 years of age with ulnar, median and radial nerve lesions to identify any manual difficulties in their performance of routine daily tasks. Six hand surgeons andnine hand therapists then analyzed the tasks listed by the patients and graded them in levels of importance for the evaluation of hand function, after which a questionnaire based on this classification was drawn up. Results: the instrument Evaluation of Hand with Nerve Damage Questionnaire, consists of 30 objective questions divided into task domains (dressing, feeding, personal hygiene, housework, writing, use of computers and “others”), answers being classified according to degree of difficulty. The questionnaire was completed by 32 patients of 18-65 years of age with sequelae of Hansen’s disease. Cronbach’s coefficient alpha was used to assess the reliability of the instrument. Following removal of two questions regarding computer use, Cronbach’s coefficient alpha increased to 0.90. Conclusion: the Evaluation of Hand with Nerve Damage Questionnaire shows a high internal consistency. In addition it is concise, easy to fill instrument not requiring specialized professional to apply and allows evaluation of the degree of independence of the individual with peripheral nerve lesion in the hand in performing routine daily tasks.

Método: foi realizada entrevista com 50 pessoas, idade entre 21 e 65 anos, portadoras de lesão nos nervos ulnar, mediano ou radial para identificar as dificuldades manuais ao  realizar as tarefas cotidianas. Em seguida, seis cirurgiões de mão e nove terapeutas de mão, analisaram as tarefas listadas pelos entrevistados e as classificaram em níveis de importância para uma avaliação funcional das mãos. Posteriormente, o questionário foi elaborado baseado nessa classificação.Resultados: o “Questionário de avaliação da mão com lesão de nervo” é constituído por 30 questões objetivas divididas em domínios de tarefas (vestuário, alimentação, higiene pessoal, tarefas domésticas, escrita, uso de computador e atividades diversas). As respostas são atribuídas de acordo com o grau de dificuldade na realização das tarefas listadas no instrumento. O questionário foi respondido por 32 pessoas com idade entre 18 e 65 anos apresentando sequela de hanseníase. O cálculo do alfa de Cronbach foi utilizado para avaliar a confiabilidade do instrumento. Após a remoção de duas questões relacionadas ao uso de computador, o resultado do alfa de Cronbach aumentou para 0,90. Conclusão: o “Questionário de avaliação da mão com lesão de nervo” apresenta alta consistência interna. Além disso, é conciso, de fácil preenchimento não necessitando a presença de profissional especializado para sua aplicação e permite a verificação do nível de independência do indivíduo com lesão de nervo periférico na mão na realização de suas tarefas habituais.Instituto Lauro de Souza Lima da Secretaria de Estado da Saúde de São Paulo2010-11-30info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionAvaliado pelos paresapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.saude.sp.gov.br/hansenologia/article/view/3622410.47878/hi.2010.v35.36224Hansenologia Internationalis: leprosy and other infectious diseases; Vol. 35 No. 2 (2010); 41-46Hansenologia Internationalis: hanseníase e outras doenças infecciosas; v. 35 n. 2 (2010); 41-461982-5161reponame:Hansenologia Internationalis (Online)instname:Instituto Lauro de Souza Lima (ILSL)instacron:ILSLporenghttps://periodicos.saude.sp.gov.br/hansenologia/article/view/36224/34528https://periodicos.saude.sp.gov.br/hansenologia/article/view/36224/34529https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessFerreira, Telma LeonelAlvarez, Rosicler Rocha AizaVirmond, MarcosAraujo, Edilberto Assumpção de2023-02-13T14:23:42Zoai:ojs.periodicos.saude.sp.gov.br:article/36224Revistahttps://periodicos.saude.sp.gov.br/hansenologiaPRIhttps://periodicos.saude.sp.gov.br/hansenologia/oaihansen_int@ilsl.br || hansenologia.internationalis@gmail.com || periodicossp@saude.sp.gov.br1982-51610100-3283opendoar:2023-02-13T14:23:42Hansenologia Internationalis (Online) - Instituto Lauro de Souza Lima (ILSL)false
