Pinch Strength
Force exerted when using the index finger and the thumb. It is a test for determining maximum voluntary contraction force.
Hand
The distal part of the arm beyond the wrist in humans and primates, that includes the palm, fingers, and thumb.
Thumb
The first digit on the radial side of the hand which in humans lies opposite the other four.
Muscle Strength
The amount of force generated by MUSCLE CONTRACTION. Muscle strength can be measured during isometric, isotonic, or isokinetic contraction, either manually or using a device such as a MUSCLE STRENGTH DYNAMOMETER.
