Official Title: GRIP: Evaluation of the Comparability of the Maximum Isometric Grip Strength Measurement Assessed with the JAMAR© Hydraulic Hand Dynamometer, the JAMAR© Smart Hand Dynamometer and the Martin Vigorimet

Brief Summary: Maximum isometric grip strength (MIGS) is a cost-effective, easily accessible, valid and reliable outcome measure for assessing upper body strength in both, adults and children.The the JAMAR Hydraulic Hand Dynamometer is the current gold standard for measuring MIGS.For certain age- and activity-groups, alternative devices may be more appropriate.To date, the quality criteria (test-retest-reliability and validity) of the JAMAR Smart Hand Dynamometer and the Martin Vigorimeter compared to the current gold standard…
