Brief Summary

Determining the factors affecting hand function after upper limb injuries is very important for maintaining independence in daily living activities. The aim of this study is to determine the relationship between core stability and hand function in patients undergoing rotator cuff surgery and to compare the results with healthy patients of a similar age. The aim of this study is to determine the relationship between core stability and hand function in patients undergoing artroscopic cuff surgery.
