Use of Hand-held Dynamometry to Obtain Objective Measures of Lower Extremity Force Production With Chronic Stroke
Use of Hand-held Dynamometry to Obtain Objective Measures of Lower Extremity Rate of Peak Force Production, Cumulative Peak Force Production, and Sustained Peak Force Production Among Patients With Chronic Stroke
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 11 Feb 2026
Brief summary (registry, in English)
This study wants to know if using handheld dynamometry (HHD) to test leg strength in persons who have had a stroke, will reduce mistakes and give therapists better information to use for therapy. This study will collect normal values of leg muscle peak force production, cumulative peak force production, and sustained peak force production in patients with chronic stroke.
