Sensory Nerve Recovery Grading Modified by Mackinnon and Dellon

Grade Group I Group II
S0: Absence of sensibility in the autonomous zone of the nerve
S1: Recovery of deep cutaneous pain sensibility within the autonomous zone of the nerve
S2: Partial recovery of superficial pain and tactile sensibility within the autonomous area of the nerve n=1 n=3
S3: Recovery of superficial cutaneous pain and tactile sensibility throughout the autonomous area without hyperalgesia. S2PD >15 mm, M2PD >7 mm n=3 n=3
S3+: Recover to S3 level, and some recovery of two point’s discrimination. S2PD: 7–15 mm, M2PD: 4–7 mm n=3 n=4
S4: Complete recovery. S2PD: 2–6 mm, M2PD: 2–3 mm n=4 n=1

Abbreviations: M2PD, moving two-point discrimination; S2PD, static two-point discrimination.
