The purpose of this study is to evaluate the performance of the Dinomometer and establish normative data to inform clinical standards and benchmarks for therapeutic practice. This is a cross-sectional study designed to collect normative grip strength data from a large sample of the general population in Minnesota. Participants will primarily be recruited from attendees of the Minnesota State Fair. Grip strength will be measured using the Dinomometer, a non-invasive handheld grip strength measurement device. The study should take approximately 10-15 minutes to complete for each participant including enrollment and completion of study procedures. Follow-up is not required.
This is a cross-sectional study designed to collect normative grip strength data from a large sample of the general population in Minnesota. Participants will be primarily recruited from attendees of the Minnesota State Fair, a community event that draws a broad cross-section of individuals across age, sex, height and weight, providing an opportunity to collect normative data that is representative of the general population. The goal of this study is to establish reference values to inform clinical benchmarks for therapeutic use of the Dinomometer. A designated research booth will be set up a…
