New study aims to set standards for handgrip strength in adolescents

NCT ID NCT07408986

First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This completed study tested how reliable a digital dynamometer is for measuring handgrip strength in 50 healthy adolescents aged 15-16. Participants performed standardized strength tests for upper and lower limbs, and results were compared across two sessions. The goal is to establish normal reference values that could later help assess muscle health in people with medical conditions.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If successful, this could provide reliable reference values for handgrip strength in adolescents, helping doctors assess muscle health in future patients.
What could go wrong
This is a small pilot study with only 50 healthy participants, so results may not apply to other ages or people with medical conditions. It does not test any treatment.
