The Jebsen Taylor Hand Function Test (JTHFT) is a standardized clinical assessment tool designed to evaluate a patient’s functional hand use during everyday activities. It is widely used in occupational therapy, physiotherapy, and neuro-rehabilitation settings.

The test simulates real-life hand tasks such as writing, lifting small objects, feeding, and moving items. It provides objective, time-based measurements of hand performance, helping therapists assess fine motor skills, coordination, dexterity, and functional independence.

The test is performed separately for dominant and non-dominant hands, allowing accurate comparison and progress tracking. It is particularly useful for patients with:

• Stroke
• Cerebral palsy
• Traumatic brain injury
• Hand injuries
• Neurological disorders

Each task is timed, making it easy to quantify improvement over therapy sessions and support clinical decision-making.
