Hand-held dynamometer

Handheld Dynamometry (HHD) is a procedure utilized to judge muscle strength. This version of a dynamometer is set up or held by the physical therapist to originate an objective measurement of force. The Scapular protraction test is usually used to measure the strength of the serratus anterior while Prone Scapular Retraction test is utilized to evaluate the strength of lower trapezius muscle then utilized a dynamometer to measure the force applied by the participant. A perfect reading on the dynamometer, with small asymmetry between sides, pretends normal serratus anterior function otherwise it will be abnormal.
