A Critical Examination of Selected Hand-Held Dynamometers to Assess Isometric Muscle Strength

Adapted Physical Activity Quarterly, 1996
This paper provides a critical review of objective hand-held dynamometers (HHDs) in assessing muscle strength in children and individuals with disabilities. In the past few years, numerous studies have examined the reliability and validity of HHDs as an objective method of measuring muscle strength.

Isokinetic strength differences between patients with primary reverse and total shoulder prostheses: muscle strength quantified with a dynamometer.

Clinical biomechanics (Bristol, Avon), 2014
Range of motion after total shoulder arthroplasty is better than after reverse shoulder arthroplasty, however with similar clinical outcome. It is unclear if this difference can only be found in the different range of motion or also in the force generating capacity.(1) are isokinetically produced joint torques of reverse shoulder arthroplasty ...

Manual muscle test scores and dynamometer test scores of knee extension strength.

Archives of physical medicine and rehabilitation, 1986
The knee extension force of 50 patients was investigated using traditional manual muscle testing and hand-held dynamometry. The relationship between manual muscle test word scores and dynamometer force scores was determined using Kendall tau, as was the relationship between manual muscle test percentage scores and dynamometer scores expressed as a ...
