Summary

In hemiplegia quantitatively measurement of the asymmetry in the use of upper limbs could overcome the limitation of many outcome measures in which scores are dependent on the experience and training of the therapist. The main aim of this study was to determine the validity of Actigraph GXT3+ to measure asymmetry in the use of the two upper limbs during the Assisting Hand Assessment (AHA) in children, adolescents and young with hemiplegia aged 5-19 years, compared to age-matched typically developing subjects (TD).
