Popis: | The BTE Work Simulator is used in strengthening and endurance programs providing objective information concerning a patient's progress from such programs. This study establishes normative data for grip and wrist flexion strength employing a BTE Work Simulator. For each part of this study, the right hand of 200 normal men between the ages of 30 and 40 years were tested. This study has established benchmark or reference values for the BTE Work Simulator. Normative values provide both objective data, for comparison of the patient to the general population, and long-term goals for which to strive during the rehabilitation process. |
