A goniometer will be used to determine the range of motion (ROM) of the metacarpophalangeal and interphalangeal joints of the replanted digits.

The fingertip-to-palm distance (FPD) and fingertip-to-table distance (FTD) will be used to assess deficits in finger flexion and extension of replanted digits.

Jamar hand dynamometer will be used to determine the grip and pinch strengths. Grip and pinch measurements will be taken in the standardized sitting position with the shoulder of the patient kept in the neutral position and the elbow flexed to 90°.

The static two-point discrimination (2-PD) and Semmes-Weinstein monofilament test (SWM test) will be used to evaluate the sensory recovery of the radial and ulnar digital nerves of all injured fingers. Normal sensibility is defined as the sensibility assessed at the corresponding contralateral uninjured digits. The two-point discriminator consists of a plate with several pins with adjustable separations ranging from 1 to 15 mm in steps of 1 mm. The patients will be asked to close their eyes during the examination. One or two pins will be applied perpendicularly to the radial and ulnar finger pulp and held for at least 3 seconds. Three repeated responses will be necessary for the final score.

Only patients with a single-digit injury will be included for these evaluations. This is because patients with multiple-digit injuries will be expected to have a higher pain level than patients with a single-digit injury and their inclusion would, therefore, bias the results. On a scale from 0 to 10, the pain intensity at rest, under strain, and in cold temperatures will be reported, with a higher number indicating increased pain.
