The upper extremity or arm is a functional unit of the upper body. It consists of three sections, the upper arm, forearm, and hand. It extends from the shoulder joint to the fingers and contains 30 bones. It also consists of many nerves, blood vessels (arteries and veins), and muscles.
The LEFS rating scale categories are: (1) \u201cextreme difficulty or unable to perform,\u201d (2) \u201cquite a bit of difficulty,\u201d (3) \u201cmoderate difficulty,\u201d (4) \u201ca little bit of difficulty,\u201d and (5) \u201cno difficulty.\u201d In addition, the participant could elect \u201cnot applicable\u201d for any item; this response was recorded as missing data ...
The lower extremity functional test (LEFT) consists of a series of 8 agility drills performed on a diamond shaped course (Figure 1). The LEFT was originally designed as a functional test to qualitatively and quantitatively assess an athlete's ability to return to sport after a lower extremity injury.
LEFS score = SUM (points for all 20 activities) Interpretation: Minimum score: 0 Maximum score: 80 The lower the score the greater the disability. The Minimal Detectable Change (MDC) is 9 scale points. The Minimal clinically Important Difference (MCID) is 9 scale points.

Binkley et al5 developed the Lower Extremity Functional Scale (LEFS) as a patient-reported measure to examine the functional status in the presence of lower extremity musculoskeletal problems. The LEFS consists of 20 items, with scores ranging from 0 (extreme difficulty/unable to perform activity) to 4 (no difficulty).
Upper extremities: Inspect arms and hands. Palpate joints (elbows, wrist, and hands) for redness and move the joints (note any decreased range of motion or crepitus) Palpate skin temperature. Palpate radial artery BILATERALLY and grade it.
The UEFS consists of 8 questions, that are scored out of a possible 10 points. The scale is calculated by summing the points from each individual question, with a range of 0 (no disability) to 80 (maximum disability).
pMCID values were 8/80 for the UEFI-20 and 6.7/100 for the UEFI-15; pMCID was higher for people whose non-dominant arm was affected. Conclusions: Both UEFI measures show acceptable reliability and validity. Arm dominance affects pMCID. The UEFI-15 is recommended because it measures only one dimension: UE function.
The UEFS is an 8-item region-specific PROM of UE function. Each item is scored from 1 (no problem) to 10 (major problem), for a total score ranging from 8 (best state) to 80 (worst state).
