Rehabilitation of Patients following a Flexor Tendon Repair.

The team at the Pulvertaft Hand Centre in Derby are currently involved in a project looking at the rehabilitation of patients following flexor tendon repairs.  Part of this project involves investigating the rehabilitation regimes that are currently being used for these patients. 

We are therefore asking any hand therapy teams who currently treat patients following flexor tendon repairs to complete this survey.  The information gained from this survey will be used to inform a future research project investigating flexor rehabilitation.  

We would also like to identify any individuals who would to be involved in providing  expert opinion on the management of these patients to help guide any future research studies.

The specific information you provide in this survey will be accessed by members of the research team at the Pulvertaft Hand Centre in order to analyse the responses.  Once the data has been analysed and collated, this will then be used as part of a research application and associated presentations, journal articles, posters etc as appropriate.  

This survey will take a maximum of 10 minutes to complete.

We only require one response per unit, therefore please complete this survey based on the consensus of your team.

Thank you for your time
