Gilmore R et al. – The best measure of unimanual capacity was the Melbourne Assessment of Unilateral Upper Limb Function (MUUL); however, the Shriners Hospital Upper Extremity Evaluation (SHUEE) and the Quality of Upper Extremity Skills Test (QUEST) could also be considered, depending on the type of information required. The performance–based measure of bimanual upper limb activity in children with hemiplegia with the best psychometric properties was the Assisting Hand Assessment (AHA). The ABILHAND–Kids is a parent–report, performance–based questionnaire with excellent clinical utility and psychometric properties. Clinicians may choose to use more than one of these measures to detect changes in unimanual or bimanual upper limb activity.
