About this study
Official title: Comparative Study of Static and Dynamic Hand Grip Endurance With Correlation of Deep Breathing Among Pregnant Women; A Cross-sectional Study
Background: Physiology of the mother, changes constantly during pregnancy including reduced HGS that is require for carrying the child after delivery. Activities of daily living require manual gripping tasks that require dynamic and static contractions. Predictor of upper extremity function is Hand Grip Strength and handgrip endurance. Screening of hand grip strength during antenatal care is still uncommon.
Objectives: To compare static and dynamic hand grip endurance in pregnant females and to find its correlation with deep breathing.

Material and Methods: The study recruited 40 participants of primi-gravida of 1st and 2nd trimester, between ages 20 and 35 years from SHALAMAR GYNAE OPD. The participants assigned to the groups (Group 1: with DB, Group 2: without DB) based on their trimester and gravidity. Static and dynamic endurance assessed using hand held dynamometer.
