Background: After upper extremity nerve repair, there occurs impairment in hand functions which represents a major problem in activities of daily living (ADL) for the patient. Therefore, the patients after peripheral nerve repair needs rehabilitation to improve their functional status. This study was conducted to determine the efficacy of modified constraint-induced movement therapy in subjects after nerve repair in upper extremity. Methodology: 27 post-surgical subjects of ulnar and/or median nerve repair, aged 18-60 years, were included in the study as per the selection criteria. The subjects were randomly divided into two groups, Group A (n=14) and Group B (n=13) and were assessed for functional disability, integrated hand function, pain and muscle strength using DASH questionnaire, SHFT, VAS and BMRC muscle strengthening grading system respectively. Group A received Modified constraint-induced movement therapy along with conventional therapy. Group B received Conventional therapy alone. The subjects were given a total duration of intervention of 8 weeks, with 5 weekly sessions and were reassessed after 8 weeks. Conclusion: The results of this study conclude that modified constraint induced movement therapy combined with Conventional physiotherapy is more effective when compared to Conventional therapy alone in improving muscle strength and integrated hand function, reducing pain and disability in subjects with nerve repair in upper extremity.
