Reference ValuesFemaleMaleWe studied normal hand strength and the difference between dominant and nondominant hands. Two hundred fourteen volunteers were tested with a calibrated jamar dynamometer at all five levels. A pinch gauge was used to assess key and pulp pinch. Height, weight, sex, hand ...
A primary purpose of this study was to establish data on hand strength by Jamar dynamometer for normal Finnish adults aged 30 to 50 years. A second aim was to find out how five various breadths of grip affect the strength value. A sample of 103 male and 101 female adults, aged 19 to...
Isometric handgrip strength was measured using a Jamar Hydraulic Hand Dynamometer (Jamar; Bolingbrook, IL). Grip strength was measured in both hands in a seated position with the arm at a 90-degree angle according to the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey guidelines for hand dynamome...
Normal and tangential forces of the static regions of HOME and MAX were averaged across samples and participants separately for 4 conditions mentioned in Table 1. Average values with standard error of the mean are presented. Analysis of multi-finger synergies The synergy index is computed for 3 ...
(iii)Hand dynamometer Various manufacturers provide grip strength meters to assess basichand strength. This is a device that requires patients to simply squeeze a handle as hard as they can, and the amount of force they exert is indicated in pounds or kilograms on the instrument. Two or three...
The Jamar Hydraulic Hand Dynamometer is an enclosed hydraulic system recording the applied strength in kilograms16. The examiner explained and demonstrated the procedure before data collection. To perform the measurement, each subject placed the Jamar in their hand, with the arm beside the trunk, ...
Handgrip strength was measured using a standard adjustable digital handgrip dynamometer (Takei Scientific Instruments Co. LTD, Japan) at standing position with shoulder adducted and neutrally rotated and elbow in full extension. The findings of the present study indicated a gradual increment of both...
and other parameters of bone health like c-BUA values and bone stiffness (SI), and physical activity (PA) of all individuals participated in this study. In addition, a hydraulic dynamometer was used to measure hand grip strength among the participants. Moreover, an immunoassay technique was use...
Muscle strength was determined through a handgrip dynamometer (defined as the sum of the largest handgrip strength reading from right and left hands). Moderation analysis was performed to test whether the association between age and olfactory impairment was moderated by handgrip strength. Moderation ...
In SAGE, handgrip strength was measured in both the hands using a Smedley Hand Dynamometer (Scandidact Aps, Denmark). The measurement was taken in sitting position with hands dropped to the side. Respondents were asked to keep their upper arm against their body and bend their elbow to 90°...
