Abstract
Nerve transfer surgery is an important new addition to the treatment paradigm following nerve trauma. The following rehabilitation plan has been developed over the past 15 years, in an interdisciplinary, tertiary peripheral nerve program at the "Roth|McFarlane Hand and Upper Limb Centre." This center evaluates more than 400 patients with complex nerve injuries annually and has been routinely using nerve transfers since 2005. The described rehabilitation program includes input from patients, therapists, physiatrists, and surgeons and has evolved based on experience and updated science. The plan is comprised of phases which are practical, reproducible and will serve as a framework to allow other peripheral nerve programs to adapt and improve the "Roth|McFarlane Hand and Upper Limb Centre" paradigm to enhance patient outcomes.
