Grip is used for the evaluation of hand grip strength. You can assess isometric strength by the way of the peak force as well as of the average force. The Grip dynamometer allows to quantitatively measure the grip weakness caused by injury compared to the strength of the healthy hand
An electrically-powered instrument designed to assess neuromuscular function by measuring the force or power exerted by the muscles of the hand/forearm to squeeze/pinch an object. It is used to assess a patient's grip strength in clinical or research settings, typically as part of a rehabilitation program for geriatric patients or those who have suffered a stroke; it may in addition be designed to be used as part of an interactive rehabilitation system whereby forces applied by the patient translate to movements in a video-game. It includes a force transducer to translate force into electrical impulses for measurement.
