Grip Strength Training Aid

In response to the challenges of mobility difficulties and health management among the elderly in an aging society, we propose a multifunctional assistive device that combines a handle with a grip trainer. The device integrates health monitoring and rehabilitation functions, designed primarily to support elderly individuals in getting up independently, performing rehabilitation exercises, and recording health data in a home environment. It can be installed on a bedside structure to serve as a supportive tool for getting in and out of bed. Through its built-in sensing modules, the device records variations in grip strength and pulling force, providing valuable data for long-term tracking and early anomaly detection by family caregivers or medical professionals.

Grip strength has been confirmed by multiple studies as a predictive indicator of muscle strength and overall health in older adults. Root According to The Journal of Gerontology (2019), grip strength is below 26 kilograms (male). Those weighing 16 kilograms (female) have a significantly higher risk of disability and death. This package Place a simple and safe home training pipeline for seniors through daily grip exercises. Immediate feedback to enhance muscle endurance and prevent muscular dystrophy, thereby reducing caregiving burdens and improving performance. quality of life.
