Grip Strength reduction is a marker of the age-related functional decline. The present work developed an exergame to continuously and transparently monitor handgrip strength and endurance in older persons. The game was tested on ten young adults reporting positive results, both in terms of usability and correlation with clinical standards, thus representing a promising, non-intrusive tool to help detecting early signs of frailty in community-dwelling older persons.

Abstract
Grip Strength reduction is a marker of the age-related functional decline. The present work developed an exergame to continuously and transparently monitor handgrip strength and endurance in older persons. The game was tested on ten young adults reporting positive results, both in terms of usability and correlation with clinical standards, thus representing a promising, non-intrusive tool to help detecting early signs of frailty in community-dwelling older persons.File in questo prodotto:
