Summary

This study is translating and testing an Urdu version of a standard questionnaire for arm, shoulder, and hand disabilities. About 385 Urdu-speaking patients with upper limb issues will fill out the questionnaire to see if it is reliable and accurate. The goal is to give doctors a better way to assess these problems in Urdu speakers, improving diagnosis and treatment decisions.
