Dynamometer Measurements of Hand-Grip Strength Predict Multiple Outcomes

Dynamometer Measurements of Hand-Grip Strength Predict Multiple Outcomes

Abstract

Hand-grip strength, which can be measured easily and objectively using a dynamometer, is predictive of multiple outcomes among a variety of subjects. Although the literature is not fully consistent, it tends to support grip strength as a predictor of postoperative complications, mortality, and functional decline. Hand-grip dynamometry may merit broader application as a screening procedure.
