Accurate assessment strategies underpin appropriate implementation and review of surgical and therapeutic intervention. This paper explores some of the commonly described assessment methods used following hand injury, including measures of range of motion (ROM), strength, sensation, hand function and patient self-evaluation. The strengths and limitations of some methods are discussed. It is suggested that accurate assessment tools and standardised approaches to assessment will promote effective evaluation of intervention. In addition long-term review and comparative studies may be facilitated by such an approach.
