Reliability and validity of hand-held dynamometry for assessing lower limb muscle strength

What is it about?

We evaluated the measurement properties of a HHD protocol for lower limb muscle groups. The proposed HHD protocol proved to be reliable and valid for measuring lower limb muscle isometric strength in healthy adults and may also be used for testing patients with mild muscle strength deficits.
