The aim of this study is to determine the correlation of cognitive
ability with functional sensibility. METHOD: 130 patients with median and ulnar
nerve repair at the distal forearm level and wrist level were included. Mean time
since surgery and age were 44.35 months (range 23-68) and, 33.44 years (range
18-71), respectively. The patients underwent an assessment of sensory function of
the hand and a battery of specific tests for cognitive capacity. RESULTS: A
multiple linear regression analysis demonstrated a significant correlation
between functional sensibility and cognitive capacity [Block design test
(Beta=0.40, p=0.00); Reaction time (Beta=-0.32, p=0.00); The Stroop color word
test (Beta=0.16, p=0.04)]. DISCUSSION: The results suggested that, cognitive
capacity factors are associated with functional sensibility after nerve repair.
These results may be mentioned cognitive rehabilitation programs would enhanced
functional outcome following nerve repair.
