Grip strength in post-stroke hemiplegia
[Purpose] This study was performed in order to investigate the grip strength of the unaffected hand of hemiplegic post-stroke patients. [Subjects] This study conducted on 83 hemiplegic post-stroke patients from May to August 2012. [Methods] This study was measured the mean grip strength of the unaffected hand of patients with hemiplegia and comparatively analyzed this with the mean normal grip ...
متن کاملGrip strength predicts outcome.
Sir—I was pleased to read the Research Letter of Kerr et al. in the January issue of this journal [1]. In it, they report a relationship between the grip strength and discharge disposition of elders admitted to hospital. Their research, though informative, is not the first to investigate ‘the link between grip strength and outcome in non-surgical settings’. For a primarily aged cohort of patien...
متن کاملEvaluation of grip strength with a sustained maximal isometric contraction for 6 and 10 seconds.
The grip strength in which subjects sustained a maximal isometric contraction for 6 seconds (the 6-second test) was compared with that for 10 seconds (the 10-second test) to clarify a reliable sustained grip strength test procedure. Fifty healthy students (22+/-4 years, 25 men and 25 women) participated in this study. Strength was measured continuously by the Dexter (Cedaron Medical Inc.). The ...
متن کاملNorms for hand grip strength.
Norms for hand grip strength of healthy children are presented. Sex and age specific centiles for age 5 to 18 years have been determined using a portable strain gauge dynamometer with an accuracy of 0.5 N. The test group comprised 1417 healthy, urban school children from a middle class suburb of Brisbane. Mean maximum grip strength (of four tests, two with each hand) and mean peak grip strength...
متن کاملEffect of Grip Span on Lateral Pinch Grip Strength
Repetitive, high-force pinch grip exertions are common in many occupational activities. The goal of the current study was to quantify the relationship between lateral pinch grip span (distance between thumb and index finger) and lateral pinch grip strength. An experiment was conducted in which 40 participants performed maximal lateral pinch grip exertions at 11 levels of grip span distances (0,...
