Normative values for isometric muscle force measurements obtained with hand-held dynamometers.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The extent of a patient's impairment can be established by comparing measurements of that patient's performance with normative values obtained from apparently unimpaired individuals. Only a few studies have described normative values for muscle strength measured by hand-held dynamometry. The purpose of this study of older adults, therefore, was to obtain normative values ...
متن کاملReference values for isometric muscle force among workers for the Netherlands: a comparison of reference values
BACKGROUND Muscle force is important for daily life and sports and can be measured with a handheld dynamometer. Reference values are employed to quantify a subject's muscle force. It is not unambiguous whether reference values can be generalized to other populations. Objectives in this study were; first to confirm the reliability of the utilization of hand-held dynamometers for isometric streng...
متن کاملNormative Values for Corneal Nerve Morphology Assessed Using Corneal Confocal Microscopy: A Multinational Normative Data Set
OBJECTIVE Corneal confocal microscopy is a novel diagnostic technique for the detection of nerve damage and repair in a range of peripheral neuropathies, in particular diabetic neuropathy. Normative reference values are required to enable clinical translation and wider use of this technique. We have therefore undertaken a multicenter collaboration to provide worldwide age-adjusted normative val...
متن کاملHip Muscle Activity during Isometric Contraction of Hip Abduction
[Purpose] This study aimed to determine the effect of varying hip flexion angle on hip muscle activity during isometric contraction in abduction. [Subjects] Twenty-seven healthy men (mean age=21.5 years, SD=1.2) participated in this study. [Methods] Surface electromyography (EMG) was recorded of the upper portion of the gluteus maximus (UGM), lower portion of the gluteus maximus (LGM), tensor f...
متن کاملTest-retest reliability of isometric shoulder muscle strength measurement with a handheld dynamometer and belt
[Purpose] The aim of this study was to develop a method of measuring isometric shoulder joint muscle strength using a handheld dynamometer with a belt and investigate its test-retest reliability. [Subjects] The subjects comprised 40 healthy adults. [Methods] Six types of isometric shoulder muscle strength were measured twice, and reliability was assessed. [Results] The intraclass correlation co...
