Product Overview
MicroFET2 Handheld Dynamometer is designed to accurately and rapidly perform muscle testing. With the MicroFET2 Digital Manual Muscle Dynamometer, healthcare professionals, physical therapists, researchers, and health coaches are able to get a general idea of strength and ability of a wide range of muscles. This device is battery operated and can hold a wireless charge for up to six consecutive hours. While plugged in, the MicroFET2 Dynamometer can operate for up to 90 consecutive hours. The MicroFET2 MMT (manual muscle tester) uses curved and digital pads to target muscle groups and regions that are otherwise difficult to gather data on. The bluetooth capability can be paired with an optional software that automatically performs calculations and validity checks, generates tables and graphs, and creates high-impact comparison reports, among many other things. Pair with the Jamar Hand Grip Dynamometer to tackle hand grip strength on top of all of these other muscle groups.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: What is a handheld dynamometer?
A: Handheld dnamometry (HHD) is a practice that uses small, portable devices, that are held by the examiner and placed against the patient’s limb during a maximal isometric contraction. These devices are used to test proximal and distal muscles in all extremities. Some dynamometers are used to test grip strength.
