Determining correlations between hand grip strength and anthropometric measurements in preschool children.

Purpose: We aimed to assess normal values of hand grip strength in preschool children and to determine their correlations with anthropometric measurements.

Methods: According to (Indira and Rajeswari, 2015) a pilot study was performed before the current study in order to confirm the variation in values of grip strength in age ranged from 3-6 years old. Therefore, ten children from each age group was assigned and it showed a significant changes in the measurements of grip strength corresponding to the age.
