Hand strength
EXPERIMENTALWe selected volunteers without motor abnormalities with aged 6 to 17 years divided in groups (n = 30) according to an age group. The tests were performed in a single session lasting 20 minutes, when volunteers used a hydraulic dynamometer and an electronic dynamometer, in order to quantify the hand strength.
Interventions
Mensuration of the handgrip strength of each volunteer using an electronic dynamometer.
Mensuration of the handgrip strength of each volunteer using a hydraulic dynamometer.
