Abstract

The intra- and inter-tester reliability for measurement of handgrip strength and indexgrip strength using the Jamar dynamometer was investigated in 32 healthy volunteers, and the intra-tester reliability in 13 patients with cervical radiculopathy. The results from the reliability studies showed that handgrip and indexgrip strength measured with the Jamar dynamometer is a reliable method (ICC values 0.85-0.98) and can be recommended for use in clinical practice. Age- and sex-specific reference values for handgrip strength and indexgrip strength were measured with the Jamar dynamometer in 101 randomly selected healthy volunteers, aged 25-64 years. The results from the reference value study showed that sex is a more important determinant of hand strength than age, height and body weight. The reference values for hand strength improve the potential for objective evaluation of patients with arm/hand disorders caused by cervical radiculopathy.

摘要

在32名健康志愿者中研究了使用Jamar握力计测量握力和示指握力时测试者内及测试者间的可靠性，并在13名神经根型颈椎病患者中研究了测试者内的可靠性。可靠性研究结果表明，用Jamar握力计测量握力和示指握力是一种可靠的方法（组内相关系数值为0.85 - 0.98），可推荐用于临床实践。在101名年龄在25 - 64岁之间随机选取的健康志愿者中，用Jamar握力计测量了握力和示指握力的年龄及性别特异性参考值。参考值研究结果表明，性别是手部力量比年龄、身高和体重更重要的决定因素。手部力量参考值提高了对由神经根型颈椎病引起的手臂/手部疾病患者进行客观评估的可能性。
