Aim- To study the effect of hand exercises on hand grip strength and manual dexterity in patients with Diabetic hand .Objectives- To study the effect of hand exercises on hand grip strength in patients with Diabetic hand using Modified sphygmomanometer test. To study the effect of hand exercises dexterity in patients with Diabetic hand using grip ability scale. To study the effect of hand function in patients with Diabetic hand using Michigan hand outcomes questionnaire (MHQ) and Duruoz Hand Index. Setting and design - In this study 15 individual participated having diabetic hand which was selected randomly. Modified sphygmomanometer test was performed on patient to check grip strength. Grip ability scale was performed on patient to check manual dexterity. Hand function was check using Michigan hand outcomes questionnaire (MHQ) and Duruoz Hand Index. The effect of hand exercise on hand grip strength and manual dexterity in patients with diabetic hand was analysied. Result- Total 15 individual participated with age mean 58±13.519 and duration of diabetes with mean 11±6.448. Modified sphygmomanometer test result improved from 28.13±3.044 to 32.47±2.875(p=0.001). Grip ability test result improved from 23.13±3.523 to 18.67±1.345(p=0.001). Michigan hand outcome questionnaire result improved from 53.29±10.19 to 71.34±5.036(p=0.001).
