Interventions

DEVICE

Jamar hydraulic hand dynamometer

The strength of the dominant hand will be recorded before and after receiving intravenous iron. Each participant will be positioned in a straight back chair with both hand and feet flat on the ground, elbow flexed to 90 degrees with forearm and wrist in the neutral position. Patient's muscle strength will then be tested three times with an interval of one minute between testing and the average of three times will be recorded to the nearest 0.1kg.
