  • reliability of measurements of tongue and Hand Strength and endurance using the iowa oral performance instrument with elderly adults
    Disability and Rehabilitation, 2015
    Co-Authors: Valerie Adams, Bernice Mathisen, Surinder Baines, Cathy L. Lazarus, Robin Callister
    Abstract:

    AbstractPurpose: This study investigated the reliability of tongue and Hand Strength and endurance measurements in old adults using the Iowa Oral Performance Instrument (IOPI). Method: Thirty aged-care residents (6 males and 24 females) aged 79–97 years were tested on four occasions two weeks apart to determine test–retest reliability. The primary outcome measures were isometric anterior and posterior tongue and Hand Strength (best of three trials) and isometric tongue and Hand endurance time at 50% of maximal Strength. Results: Changes in the mean between sessions for tongue and Hand Strength indicated acceptable (< 10%) reliability particularly with familiarisation. The within-subject variation (mean-typical error expressed as a coefficient of variation, CV) indicated higher than acceptable variation for anterior and posterior tongue and Hand Strength. Intra-class correlations (ICC) indicated moderate to strong reliability for anterior (ICC 0.58–0.77) and posterior (ICC 0.77–0.84) tongue Strength and ha...

  • A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis of Measurements of Tongue and Hand Strength and Endurance Using the Iowa Oral Performance Instrument (IOPI)
    Dysphagia, 2013
    Co-Authors: Valerie Adams, Bernice Mathisen, Surinder Baines, Cathy Lazarus, Robin Callister
    Abstract:

    The purpose of this systematic review was to examine the evidence for the use of the Iowa Oral Performance Instrument (IOPI) to measure Strength and endurance of the tongue and Hand in healthy populations and those with medical conditions. A systematic search of the scientific literature published since 1991 yielded 38 studies that addressed this purpose. The IOPI was used primarily for tongue Strength (38 studies) and endurance (15 studies) measurement; relatively few studies measured Hand Strength (9 studies) or endurance (6 studies). The majority of the studies identified used the IOPI as an evaluation tool, although four used it as an intervention tool. Half the studies were conducted in healthy people, primarily adults. Most of the other participants had disorders with dysphagia, primarily Parkinson’s disease or head or neck cancer. Age and gender, as well as a number of medical conditions, influence the values of tongue and Hand Strength. There is sufficient evidence to support the use of the IOPI as a suitable tool for measuring tongue Strength and endurance and as an assessment tool for intervention studies, and there is growing support for its use to assess Hand Strength and endurance in healthy and clinical populations.

  • A Pilot Study of Five Types of Maximum Hand Strength among Manufacturing Industry Workers in Taiwan.
    International journal of environmental research and public health, 2019
    Co-Authors: Yi-chen Chiu, Chien-wei Liu
    Abstract:

    Background: The purpose of this study is to collect five types of maximum Hand Strength among workers in the manufacturing industry in Taiwan. Methods: This study is a cross sectional study with a stratified and convenient sample of workers on the production line in manufacturing industries in Central Taiwan. In total, we recruited 198 healthy subjects to participate in this study. Five types of Hand Strength were measured in both Hands three times with 3 min rests between trials. Results: The Strength of females for these five types of Hand exertions were 52.0% to 67.6% of the Strength of males (p < 0.001). For both genders, there was a main effect for the types of Hand Strength for the right Hand (p < 0.001) and the left Hand (p < 0.001). In general, the Hand Strength in U.S. and EU countries was 1.2 to 1.7 times greater than the Strength among the three types of Hand exertions in this study. Conclusion: These results can be used to evaluate the musculoskeletal burdens on the upper extremities in the manufacturing industry and could also be used for tool and job design and job modifications.

  • Força muscular e mortalidade na lista de espera de transplante de fígado
    Revista Brasileira de Fisioterapia, 2008
    Co-Authors: Mrm Isern, Carla Da Silva Machado, Pcb Massarollo
    Abstract:

    OBJECTIVE: To evaluate respiratory muscle Strength and Hand Strength in patients on a liver transplant waiting list and to associate these with mortality. METHODS: one hundred and thirty-two patients who underwent routine physical therapy evaluation while waiting for liver transplantation were studied retrospectively. Respiratory muscle Strength was assessed by measuring the maximum inspiratory pressure (MIP) and maximum expiratory pressure (MEP), and upper-limb Strength was evaluated by dynamometry. The patients were divided into two groups: group A, consisting of 51 patients (14 females, 50.1±12.3 years) who died while on the waiting list; and group B, consisting of 81 patients (31 females, 45.0±3.8 years) who survived until the time of liver transplant. Student’s t test was used with a 5% significance level. RESULTS: The mean MIP values for groups A and B were 65.7±28.0 and 77.5±33.8mmHg (p=0.04), respectively, and the mean MEP values were 72.9±32.9 and 84.4±33.1mmHg (p=0.07), respectively. The mean values for left-Hand Strength in groups A and B were 18.5±8.1 and 21.5±10.5kgf (p=0.08), and the mean values for right-Hand Strength were 20.2±9.7 and 23.5±12.5kgf (p=0.10), respectively. CONCLUSIONS: MIP was lower in the patients who died while waiting for liver transplantation. In the same group, it was observed that the MEP values and right and left-Hand Strength were numerically lower, although they did not reach statistically significant differences.
