Internal consistency and validity of the Jebsen-Taylor hand function test in an Italian population with hemiparesis.

CONCLUSIONS: The present study supports the use of the JTHFT-IT as a measure of hand functionality in post-stroke adults with chronic hemiplegia or hemiparesis. It is an important tool for Italian professionals, and it can be useful both in clinical practice to evaluate improvement after rehabilitation treatments and for research in hand rehabilitation.
