A cross-sectional study was carried out to study the correlation of Hand grip strength with length, breadth and span of dominant hand in patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus aged 40 to 60 years. Around 200 participants were assessed for the study, from which 165 participants (86 males and 79 females) who met the inclusion criteria of having diabetes since or longer than 3 years were included in the study. Participants were assessed for Hand grip strength using Jamar handheld dynamometer where setting of dynamometer handle was adjusted according to the hand length of participant. Measuring…mehr

A cross-sectional study was carried out to study the correlation of Hand grip strength with length, breadth and span of dominant hand in patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus aged 40 to 60 years. Around 200 participants were assessed for the study, from which 165 participants (86 males and 79 females) who met the inclusion criteria of having diabetes since or longer than 3 years were included in the study. Participants were assessed for Hand grip strength using Jamar handheld dynamometer where setting of dynamometer handle was adjusted according to the hand length of participant. Measuring tape was used to assess Hand length, breadth and span of the dominant hand. Data was analysed using Pearson's correlation coefficient to find the correlation and significance was seen. Mean score for hand grip strength (in kilograms) was 20.9, hand length (in centimeters) was 18.57, hand breadth (in centimeters) was 8.57 and hand span (in centimeters) was 18.58. Results of this study demonstrated that a fair correlation was seen for hand grip strength with hand length (r value= 0.4821) and span (r value= 0.2619).
