Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Static Grip Endurance
Static grip endurance was evaluated by Hand Dynamometer (Lafayette Proffessional Hand Dynamometer, USA). The maximum gripping time of 50% of the maximum grip force was recorded.
Data collection will continue until December 2019. Data analysis and report preparation will be completed by September 2020.
Dynamic Grip Endurance
Dynamic grip endurance was evaluated by Hand Dynamometer (Lafayette Proffessional Hand Dynamometer, USA). The percentage change between the first 3 grips and the last 3 grips after 10 consecutive grips is recorded.
Data collection will continue until December 2019. Data analysis and report preparation will be completed by September 2020.
Secondary Outcomes (2)
Disability of Upper Extremity
Data collection will continue until December 2019. Data analysis and report preparation will be completed by September 2020.
Quality of Life Parameters
Data collection will continue until December 2019. Data analysis and report preparation will be completed by September 2020.
