Abstract:Background : Handgrip strength (HGS) is a well-established clinical biomarker that assesses functional capacity in older populations. In addition, HGS is a diagnostic tool that forecasts aging health conditions, such as sarcopenia. Aims : This paper provides HGS statistical tolerance regions and presents the need to establish HGS reference values according to patients' characteristics. Methods : For this purpose, we used a conditional tolerance algorithm for HGS, and we observed the tolerances regions in diffe… Show more
