RELATIONSHIP OF HAND GRIP STRENGTH AND HAND DIMENSIONS IN FEMALE STUDENTS

RELATIONSHIP OF HAND GRIP STRENGTH AND HAND DIMENSIONS

Abstract

Handgrip strength is a quantitative evaluation of generally speaking actual capacity and an assessment of the usefulness of the upper appendages. Hand grasp strength can be evaluated by estimating how much consistent power that the hand can apply on a dynamometer. Methods: This study was directed on an example of 68 female college understudies matured somewhere in the range of 18 and 25 years, utilizing a non-likelihood helpful testing method. This study rejects guys and females who are more seasoned and have work related populace. The information was gathered by a survey that included individual data like age, level, weight, BMI, way of life, as well as hand aspects estimated utilizing anthropometric procedures, and hand strength estimated utilizing a dynamometer. The information was dissected utilizing SPSS 21. Results: The mean age of female students was 21.6±1.98 years, with a basal age of 19 years and a maximum age of 25 years. The mean level and weight were 157.29±5.06cm and 52.75±8.463kg individually. The mean hand grasp strength of female understudies was 12.21±2.875 kg. Out of 68 female understudies, the BMI of 9(13.2%) was underweight, 48(70.6%) was typical and 11(16.2%) was overweight. Out of 68 female understudies, 55 (80.9%) had a functioning way of life that included activity, while 13 (19.1%) had an inactive way of life. The mean of FS1, FS2, FS3, FS4 and FS5 were 10.98±1.82, 14.32±1.75, 15.77±1.96, 16.96±2.00 and 26.63±3.66 individually. The mean of TL, IFL, MFL, RFL AND LFL were 13.10±0.89, 15.94±3.42, 17.65±1.27, 16.71±1.29 and 14.45±0.55 separately. The mean of P1, P2, P3, P4 and P5 were 39.95±2.98, 44.66±2.59, 43.89±3.02, 43.99±3.57 and 54.27±4.22 separately. Conclusion: The ongoing review found a vigorous and measurably huge connection between hand aspects (in particular finger range, finger length, and hand edge) and hand hold strength in female understudies at the College of Lahore. Customary actual work and ordinary activity add to expanded hand grasp strength in understudies.
