grip strength
Squeeze force measurement
Grip strength is the force exerted when squeezing or clenching the hand.
It serves as a measure of muscular power in the forearm and hand, assessed clinically with a dynamometer: Her grip strength has declined since the surgery.
Grip strength correlates with overall health and is sometimes used as a predictor of longevity in older adults.
