Application diagnosis and prognosis
Objective To assess the degree of muscle dysfunction using Hand grip strength(HGS) as a biomarker in a large group of patients with CHD who often develop muscle dysfunction
p Value <0.001
Conclusion In the entire group of patients with CHD HGS was 35.1±14.6 kg and signicantly reduced compared to the healthy CG (43.2±14.7 kg, P<0.001) (Figure 1) on average −5.71 kg (95% CI: −7.61 to −3.81 kg), controlled for sex and age.
