Hand injuries are among the most common musculoskeletal injuries and can significantly impair an individual’s ability to perform activities of daily living (ADL), thereby impacting quality of life. Self-efficacy plays a vital role in influencing daily performance and recovery following injury. This cross-sectional study aims to explore the relationship between ADL performance and self-efficacy among clients with hand injuries within the Indian context. Secondary objectives of this study include assessing self-efficacy levels and evaluating ADL performance in this population. • A self-administered, closed-ended, structured questionnaire comprising performance-based and self-efficacy measures will be used for data collection. Participants will include adults aged 18 years and above who have sustained fractures of the hand or wrist, including digits, and have undergone surgical treatment. • Clients will be recruited from the Occupational Therapy department. • The findings aim to highlight the importance of considering both objective and subjective measures in occupational therapy assessment and to emphasize the role of self-efficacy in ADL performance following hand injuries, potentially informing culturally sensitive rehabilitation interventions.
