Primary | Nine Hole Peg Test (DDPT) | DDPT is a standard-sized nine-hole panel. Nine nails made of simple, performance-enhancing material is a time-tested test of fine upper motor function. To counter the learning effect, the child was allowed to experience this test. Before the start of the test, the test procedure is explained as quickly as possible. After inserting wooden nails into the holes in the same way and placing all 9 nails into the holes, the nails were asked to be removed without waiting. Test completion time recorded with the stopwatch. The stopwatch was stopped when the last nail was removed and placed in the side chamber, and the time displayed on the stopwatch was recorded. The completion time of the test gave information about the person's upper extremity performance. | 10 months | |
Primary | Wooden Box and Block Test (TKBT) | CBCT is used to evaluate manual dexterity in patients with stroke, multiple sclerosis, traumatic brain injury, fibromyalgia, children with upper extremity involvement, and the elderly. While the test is seated in a chair with a backrest without armrests, supported by the feet, the affected side to be evaluated is conventionally positioned with the hand. It was performed before and after the application in addition to physiotherapy. First, a trial period of 15 seconds was given. Then, he was asked to fill 150 small wooden blocks one by one as fast as possible for 60 seconds from the box with the hand to be tested to the box next to it. If he throws it without raising his hand, it will not be counted, accidentally 2 It was stated that if he throws a wooden block, it will be counted as 1 wooden block. It was counted how many wooden blocks were thrown in 60 seconds and the result gave information about the upper extremity performance tested. | 10 months | |
Secondary | Manual Skills Classification System (EBSS) | The EBSS was a five-level, ordinal classification system that described the manual dexterity of children with CP aged 4 to 18 years when handling objects in typical daily activities. EBSS levels define the use of both hands in daily activities, which is expected according to a child's age, not only as a fine motor function, but also as dependent on cognitive, motor planning and motivation. EBSS is not an outcome measure or diagnostic tool, its purpose is a child's daily classifying the ability to use objects manually in life. EBSS level 1 represents the highest level of manual ability at which objects can be grasped and used easily and successfully, and level 5 represents the lowest level where objects cannot be used independently and assistance is most needed. | 10 months | |
Secondary | Modified Ashworth Scale (MAS) | The MAS is the most universally accepted clinical tool used to measure the increase in muscle tone. In 1964, Bryan Ashworth published the Ashworth Scale as a method of grading spasticity while working with multiple sclerosis patients. The original Ashworth scale was 0-4, 0 without resistance, and 4 for spasticity. It is a 5-point numerical scale with limb stiffness in flexion or extension. In 1987, manual testing of elbow flexor muscle spasticity, Bohannon and Smith, while conducting a study to examine inter-interpretive reliability, modified the Ashworth scale to add 1+ to the scale to increase sensitivity. The purpose of the modified Ashworth scale is to assess muscle tone. It is easy to use, but the findings are subject to the subjective opinion of the evaluator. This scale classifies muscle tone from 0 (normal) to 4 (severe spasticity). | 10 months | |
Secondary | ABILHAND-Kids Manual Ability Scale | ABILHAND Kids, developed by Rasch in 2004, is a reliable, valid and sensitive measure for assessing manual dexterity in children with upper extremity disorders. ABILHAND-Kids is a convenient and fast-applied scale consisting of 21 items covering various areas of daily life. Often the function of both hands is evaluated. Generally, the scale is applied by asking the families, if the child is older and at a level to be able to apply the scale, he/she can be included in the application. While assessing functional ability, any assistive device or There should be no human support. For each item, they are asked to indicate their perceived difficulty on a three-level scale: Impossible (0 point), Difficult (1 point), or Easy (2 points). | 10 months |
