Summary

This study developed a system to quantify the functional strength of young adults without motor impairment during grip and pinch movement. Making it possible to know the accuracy of the value of these strength, the range of motion performed and whether the grip force was maintained throughout the range of motion. In addition to checking the functionality, reliability and reproducibility of the system.

Conditions

  • Hand Injuries and Disorders

Interventions

DEVICE

handgrip strength

First, the hand measurements of each volunteer were evaluated, followed by the measurement of handgrip strength using the Jamar® dynamometer. And later the tests were performed using the system that contains the 5 devices to quantify the hand strength.

DEVICE

Door handle device

To evaluate the cylindrical grip movement, a door handle was used, which evaluated the full force in the range of motion.

DEVICE

Tap device

To evaluate the spherical grip movement, a tap was used, which evaluated the full force in the range of motion.

DEVICE

Door pull handle

To assess the hook grip movement, a door pull handle was used, which assessed the full force in the range of motion

DEVICE

Linear Switch device

To evaluate the pulp-pulp pinch movement, a switch was used, which evaluated the full force in the movement of the movement.

DEVICE

Door Key device

To assess the pulp-side pinch movement, a door key was used, which evaluated the full force in the range of motion.
