Wolf Motor Function Test (WMFT)

It should take between 30 to 35 minutes! Don’t be surprised if it takes longer, though. You are going to be evaluating both upper extremity limbs, after all.

No. This test should not be self-administered. Only orthopedists, physical therapists, occupational therapists, and adjacent healthcare professionals should administer this because they are highly trained to make educated observations and interpret results.

This test can only be administered to people who can still move their arms. If they have severe spasticity or have amputated arms, then this test can’t be used to assess them. The scope of the test is also limited. It only focuses on the arms. So if you want a comprehensive picture of your patient’s physical condition and capabilities, you are going to need to conduct comprehensive examinations that include other assessments.
