Study Overview
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to compare functional outcomes in single digit replantation subjects compared with revision amputation. Functional outcomes will be assessed by DASH (disabilities of the arm, shoulder and hand) score and with Purdue Pegboard Test by the subject's respective hand therapist at their last visit. Results will contribute to generating a preoperative decision algorithm for single digit amputation injuries.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Functional outcome by Purdue Pegboard Test
Time Frame: Immediately following patient discharge from hand therapy
Measured by Purdue Pegboard Test (higher scores indicate a greater level of dexterity and functionality and are typically compared with normative data stratified on the basis of age, score range depends on how the test is administered)
Functional outcome by Michigan Hand Questionnaire
Time Frame: Immediately following patient discharge from hand therapy
Measured by Michigan Hand Questionnaire (higher scores indicate a greater level of functionality, score range from 0 to 100)
Functional outcome by DASH score
Time Frame: Immediately following patient discharge from hand therapy
Measured by DASH score (higher scores indicate a greater level of disability, score range from 0 to 100)
Secondary Outcomes
No secondary outcomes reported
