The Effects of Shoulder and Elbow Flexion Angles on the Maximum Grip Strength

摘要: Objective: The objective of this study is to analysis the effect shoulder and elbow flexion angles in standing sitting on maximum grip strength. Background: American Society Hand Therapists(ASHT) suggested a standardized testing protocol which subject should be seated with adducted neutrally rotated, flexed 90° forearm wrist neutral position. Method: evaluates 24 coordination postures levels 0°, 45°, 90°, 135° positions subjects 40 university students. Results: Grip strength was shown stronger case posture compared posture, statistically significant. There no significant difference analyses as well other interaction effects. Conclusion: angle 0° an optimal measuring level that suggests. Application: results will help preventing musculoskeletal diseases improving task efficiency.
