Results. In left dominant hand are functional of small common object, simulated feeding and large light object in Jebsen-Taylor Hand Function Test. Also O'conner Finger dexterity test are functional in left dominant hand and same result in Purdue pegboard test. Conclusion. The results of this study was left dominant hand is more functional than right dominant hand. So, we suggests that both hand using are improving of hand function in right dominant hand.
