Objectives To comprehend the merits of a Manual Tactile Test (MTT) in assessing hand sensorimotor functions by exploring the relations among 3 subtests along with the precision pinch performances for patients with peripheral nerve injuries (PNIs); and to understand the accuracy of the MTT by constructing the sensitivity and specificity of the test for patients with PNI. Design Case-control study. Setting Hospital and local community. Participants Patients with PNI (n=28) were recruited along with age-, sex-, and handedness-matched healthy controls (n=28) (N=56). Interventions Not applicable. Main Outcome Measures The Semmes-Weinstein monofilament, moving and static 2-point discrimination, roughness differentiation, stereognosis and barognosis subtests of the MTT, and precision pinch performance were used to examine the sensory and sensorimotor status of the hand. Results The worst results in all sensibility tests were found for the patients with PNI (P<.001 in comparison with the controls. multiple linear regression analysis showed mtt was a better indicator for predicting sensorimotor capacity of hands patients pni p=".003)" than traditional test results receiver operating characteristic curve estimation show that area under .968 and .959 roughness differentiation stereognosis subtests respectively .853 barognosis subtest therefore revealing accuracy assessing status pni.> Conclusions This study indicates that the MTT is highly accurate and a significant predictor of sensorimotor performance in hands of patients with PNI. The MTT could therefore help clinicians obtain a better understanding of the sensorimotor and functional status of the hand with nerve injuries. |
