Subjects: The subjects were 23 elderly females (46 hands; average age, 83.4 ± 4.2 years) certified in need of low levels of care, who were attending a day-care rehabilitation facility. Methods: Hand function, finger muscle strength (grip and pinch strength), sense of touch and reaction time were measured and the relationships with hand function were investigated using Pearson's correlation coefficient. Results: Significant inverse correlations were found between hand function and light reaction time and sense of touch. However no significant correlations were found between hand function and grip and pinch strengths. Conclusion: The hand function of elderly females certified in need of low levels of care is influenced by reaction time and sense of touch rather than finger muscle strength., 理学療法科学学会, 25(3), pp.469-472; 2010}, pages = {469--472}, title = {軽度要介護後期高齢者女性の手指運動機能と手指筋力・感覚・反応時間との関連}, volume = {25}, year = {2010} }
