Although addressing specific motor skills remains important, participation is shaped by a complex interplay of physical, personal, and contextual factors as well as compensation and difficulties with bimanual tasks, even in unilateral injuries. Rehabilitation should incorporate activity-based assessments that capture real-world challenges and support individualized intervention planning.\n                  <\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>\n                    <jats:bold>Plain-Language Summary:<\/jats:bold>\n                    Nerve injuries in the upper extremity can significantly affect the ability to engage in essential activities. This study aimed to enhance the assessment of activity participation for people with upper extremity nerve injuries. We found that focusing on specific motor skills, such as fine and gross motor skills, gives a better understanding of how nerve injuries affect engagement in important activities. Hand dexterity, as measured using standard tools, was not linked to the ability to retain fine motor activities. These findings suggest that, to tailor interventions to enhance overall recovery, rehabilitation should include an individualized assessment (in addition to standard scales) to identify the activities that depend on the patient\u2019s specific motor skills impairments.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.5014\/ajot.2025.051142","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,10,7]],"date-time":"2025-10-07T15:25:17Z","timestamp":1759850717000},"page":"1196-1207","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Activity Loss and Retention Patterns Following Unilateral Peripheral Nerve Injury: Implications for Rehabilitation"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"79","author":[{"given":"Samah","family":"Gassass","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Samah Gassass, MS, OTR\/L, is Doctoral Student, Program in Occupational Therapy, School of Medicine, Washington University in St. Louis, St. Louis, MO;"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ruiwen","family":"Zhou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Ruiwen Zhou, PhD, is Assistant Professor of Biostatistics, Department of Biostatistics, School of Medicine, Washington University in St. Louis, St. Louis, MO."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Robin","family":"Hattori","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Robin Hattori, MA, is Senior Project Manager, Program in Occupational Therapy, School of Medicine, Washington University in St. Louis, St. Louis, MO."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Lei","family":"Liu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Lei Liu, PhD, is Professor of Biostatistics, Department of Biostatistics, School of Medicine, Washington University in St. Louis, St. Louis, MO."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Lisa Tabor","family":"Connor","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Lisa Tabor Connor, PhD, MSOT, is Professor, Program in Occupational Therapy, School of Medicine, Washington University in St. Louis, St. Louis, MO."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Benjamin Allen","family":"Philip","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Benjamin Allen Philip, PhD, is Assistant Professor, Program in Occupational Therapy, School of Medicine, Washington University in St. Louis, St. Louis, MO."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,10,7]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_1_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.14474\/ptrs.2018.7.2.67"},{"key":"e_1_3_1_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/15394492241249446"},{"key":"e_1_3_1_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.29252\/nrip.irj.15.4.367"},{"key":"e_1_3_1_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jhsa.2009.07.002"},{"key":"e_1_3_1_6_1","volume-title":"ACS: Activity Card Sort (2nd ed.): Test manual.","author":"Baum C.
