Arm && Interventions

Group	Intervention	Description
control:routine treatment	routine treatment	20 sessions (4 weeks, 5 days a week, 60 minutes) routine hand rehabilitation program will be implemented.
experimental: virtual reality	virtual reality	In addition to routine hand care programs for 4 weeks, 5 days, 40 minutes a day, 20 sessions (4 weeks, 5 days, 20 minutes) virtual reality based movement therapy program will be applied.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Jebsen Taylor Hand Function Test	from baseline to the end of the treatment (4 week)	Used to assess upper extremity functions. Activities are evaluated on a time basis.
Questionnaire Quick Disability of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand (Quick DASH)	from baseline to the end of the treatment (4 week)	activity participation level will be assessed by Q-DASH.Each question will be scored between 1-5 points (1: no difficulty, 2: mild difficulty, 3: medium difficulty, 4: extreme difficulty, 5: not at all). The total score will be recorded.
visual analog scale (VAS)	from baseline to the end of the treatment (4 week)	marks the severity of pain between 0 and 10.
Sammes Weinstein Monofilament Test (SWMT)	from baseline to the end of the treatment (4 week)	sensory threshold is used for assessment.sensed monofilament values will be collected and recorded. The highest total score will be considered as 15.
duruöz hand index	from baseline to the end of the treatment (4 week)	kitchen work, evaluates cleaning, workplace and other activities of daily living. The total score is between 0-90.
Jamar dynamometer	from baseline to the end of the treatment (4 week)	Jamar dynamometer will be used for grip strength. 3 repetitive measurements will be made and the average will be recorded.(in kilograms)
