  The hand grip strength of neurology physiotherapists working with neurological patients who have impaired control of agonist and antagonist muscles due to nerve injuries or accidents, and intensive care nurses and nursing staff working with second and third level immobile patients are at risk. Wrist grip level decreases over time in both professions; due to the damage to the anatomical structures of the wrist, for reasons such as positioning the patient, exercising, etc. Our aim in this study is to ensure that the aforementioned similar sub divisional health workers; to reveal the occupational difference rates between hand grip strength and forearm flexion extension strength losses. In our study, only male participants were included in the study in order to eliminate gender-related muscle strength differences. 20 male neurology physiotherapists and 20 male.. Read More»
