Abstract
•Identifying outcome measures that correspond to the International Classification of Functioning (ICF) provides insight into selecting an appropriate outcome tool in hand therapy practice.•The purpose of this systematic review is to systematically review common hand therapy patient–reported outcome measures and determine the extent to which the content represents the ICF.•A comprehensive literature search identified appropriate outcome measures. The meaningful concept was determined for each item on the measures and linked to the most specific ICF category. Summary linkage calculations were completed.•Eleven patient-reported outcome measures were identified from 32 included studies. Activity and participation had the highest content coverage followed by body functions. Environmental factors were not represented in any of the included outcome measures. None of the included measures represent all categories of the ICF.•Understanding the linkage process and content coverage of each tool assists in determining which measures are most appropriate for use and encourages consideration for more than 1 assessment tool.
