Recommendations for Reducing Heterogeneity in Handgrip Strength Protocols
The Journal of Frailty & Aging, 2022 Handgrip dynamometers are widely used to measure handgrip strength (HGS). HGS is a safe and easy to obtain measure of strength capacity, and a reliable assessment of muscle function. Although HGS provides robust prognostic value and utility, several protocol variants exist for HGS in clinical settings and translational research.
