Brief Summary

Jamar hydraulic hand dynamometer, is a high cost and manual device that is commonly used for the evaluation of the hand grip strength (HGS) with validity and reliability. Nowadays it is thought that usage of the digital and automatic calibration dynamometers, such as Camry, would be more appropriate in the evaluation of the HGS. This research is a cross-sectional study using the random crossover method. Purpose of the study is comparing the outcome measures of the Camry and Jamar dynamometers in healthy adult individuals and investigating the realiability and validity of the Camry usage. Healthy adult male and female individuals aged 18 and over will be included in the study on a voluntary basis. Power analysis was performed to determine the number of people to be included in the study. The power of the test was calculated with the G\*Power 3.1 program and was determined as 60 participants. Inclusion criteria of the study; Healthy adults aged 18 and over, individuals who do not have any restrictions in upper extremity functions and do not have cognitive and/or psychological problems will be included. Individuals under 18 years of age, using an assistive device, having an autoimmune disorder, pregnant individuals, and individuals with a history of hospitalization for more than three days in the last six months will not be included in the study.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Evaluation of hand grip strength with Camry dynamometer

  In the literature, although it is stated that the hand grip strength (HGS)is related with the general muscle strength and physical activity level, also thought to be an indicator of the general health. The HGS evaluation in all healthy and/or sick individuals is important for the clinical follow up or evaluation purposes. In our study, the Camry dynamometer, which has automatic calibration, automatic grip strength data recording and continuous data collection, will be used to evaluate HGS.

Interventions

Assessment DEVICE

The hand grip strength of each individuals was measured by the Electronic Camry Dynamometer (Model EH101, Zhongs-han Camry Electronic Co. Ltd. China: 90 kg capacity, 356 g weight) and Jamar Hydraulic Hand Grip Dynamometer (Model J00105, Lafayette Instrument Com-pany. USA: 90 kg capacity, 727 g weight). The assessments of the upper extremity were performed bilaterally. Camry Electronic Hand Grip Dynamometer - Measurement of Grip Strength: In the evaluation to be made with the Camry Electronic Hand Grip Dynamometer; Three different measurements will be made on bilateral upper extremities (right and left). Jamar Hydraulic Hand Grip Dynamometer - Measurement of Grip Strength: In the evaluation to be made with the Jamar Hydraulic Hand Grip Dynamometer; Three different measurements will be made on bilateral upper extremities (right and left).

Eligibility Criteria
