Validation of the Polish version of the Hand Function Scoring system.
Background: The Hand Function Scoring (HFS) system was created to assess the results of rehabilitation treatment after hand injuries. A perceived hand function improvement in patients who underwent carpal tunnel syndrome surgery prompted us to use the Watts HFS questionnaire in our study.
Objectives: The study aimed to: 1) translate and validate the new questionnaire into Polish; 2) analyze the usefulness of the scale in the preand post-operative assessment of patients with carpal tunnel syndrome; and 3) compare the results with other questionnaires recognized as the gold standard in carpal tunnel treatment evaluation.
Material and methods: Patients with electromyographically confirmed carpal tunnel syndrome (n = 317) were enrolled in the study. Participants completed the HFS, Boston Carpal Tunnel Questionnaire (BCTQ), Michigan Hand Outcomes Questionnaire (MHQ), and the Quality-of-Life Scale (QoLS) on their first visit to our clinic. Two weeks later, 84 patients completed the same questionnaires again, and 6-12 months after the operation, we received 90 additional responses.
Results: The analysis showed that the HFS questionnaire met the validation criteria and had a strong correlation with the BCTQ questionnaire for the Symptoms Severity Scale (SSS) (Rho = 0.70, p < 0.001) and the Functional Status Scale (FSS) (Rho = 0.89, p < 0.001).
Conclusions: The HFS questionnaire was successfully employed in the subjective assessment of carpal tunnel symptom syndrome severity and the analysis of treatment results, and would complement the clinical assessment of patients during treatment. The questionnaire could also be used in future scientific research.
期刊介绍：
Advances in Clinical and Experimental Medicine has been published by the Wroclaw Medical University since 1992. Establishing the medical journal was the idea of Prof. Bogumił Halawa, Chair of the Department of Cardiology, and was fully supported by the Rector of Wroclaw Medical University, Prof. Zbigniew Knapik.

The journal has been indexed in several databases: Scopus, Ulrich’sTM International Periodicals Directory, Index Copernicus and since 2007 in Thomson Reuters databases: Science Citation Index Expanded i Journal Citation Reports/Science Edition.
In 2010 the journal obtained Impact Factor which is now 1.179 pts. Articles published in the journal are worth 15 points among Polish journals according to the Polish Committee for Scientific Research and 169.43 points according to the Index Copernicus.
Since November 7, 2012, Advances in Clinical and Experimental Medicine has been indexed and included in National Library of Medicine’s MEDLINE database. English abstracts printed in the journal are included and searchable using PubMed http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed.
