The Lafayette Hand-held Dynamometer (HHD) is an ergonomic hand-held device used for objectively
quantifying muscle strength. The test is performed with the clinician stabilizing the dynamometer
to the limb of a patient. The objective of the test is for the clinician to resist the patient’s applied
force. The HHD records the peak force and the time required to achieve the force providing reliable,
accurate, and stable muscle strength readings.
The HHD also features interactive menus to allow a wide range of options such as data storage, preset
test times, and force thresholds to be implemented. While powerful and versatile, the HHD is still

and tester comfort while easily conforming to testing protocols.

Basic Operations
The Lafayette HHD is small enough to be held in one hand and easily read. The size and weight of
the HHD permit the examiner to use the same procedures and break test techniques described in the
OLWHUDWXUHDQGWDXJKWE\DFDGHPLFLQVWLWXWLRQVZLWKRXWDQ\PRGLÀFDWLRQRIWHFKQLTXHRUSRVLWLRQLQJ
The unit is simply placed between the examiner’s hand and the limb being tested. The examiner’s

left hand, with settings for both dexterities. The hand is placed under the strap and around the body
of the HHD. This allows easy access to the TOP buttons with the thumb. All of the other buttons are
pressed using the opposite hand.
The HHD is activated by pressing and holding the Menu/Select button. Measurements are taken by
positioning the padded stirrup against the muscle being tested on the subject. The force and time
data are displayed on the LCD screen. To conserve battery life, the HHD will deactivate itself when not

Dynamometer Cleaning
Hard surfaces can be cleaned with a bleach-free sanitizing wipe. Alcohol wipes may also be used.
Cloth or foam surfaces can be cleaned with anti-bacterial soap and water and allowed to air dry. Care
must be taken to not allow water to penetrate the enclosure as damage to the circuit may occur.
Disposable sanitary covers are available on the stirrup pad that comes into direct contact with the
patient’s skin. Do not reuse disposable covers.
Disclaimer: These cleaning instructions for Lafayette Instrument products are a recommendation of
compatible cleaning materials only. Product end users are responsible for instituting an appropriate
cleaning regimen utilizing best practices and techniques. Lafayette Instrument assumes no
responsibility for the cleanliness or sanitation of the products after initial use nor makes any claim that
the use of the recommended cleaning materials mitigates all risk of potential cross infection.

Appendix A: Torque measurements with the HHD
In some research and rehabilitation applications, it is necessary to obtain torque measurements for
the limb being tested. Torque is often a more accurate indicator of total strength because it takes into
account the length of the muscle being tested. The Lafayette Hand-held Dynamometer (HHD) can be
used to obtain torque values through a series of basic calculations.
Torque is measured in units of Newton meters (Nwm) in the Metric system and in foot pounds (ftwlbs)
in the English system. Torque is the product of the force applied times the distance between the force
and the pivot point (usually a joint).
Equations for obtaining torque readings with the HHD using metric values:
Torque = Force * Distance
Where force equals the HHD reading converted to Newtons and distance is the length between where
the force is applied and the joint being tested in meters.
Newtons conversions: 1 pound = 4.45 Newtons; 1 kilogram = 9.81 Newtons
Newtons are calculated at sea level.
1RUPDWLYH6WUHQJWKFDQDOVREHTXDQWLÀHGDVWRUTXHSHUNLORJUDPERG\ZHLJKW1ZPNJ7KLVYDOXHLV
obtained by dividing the torque by the person’s bodyweight in kg.
Strength = ((HHD reading in Newtons) * distance)
bodyweight in kilograms
Appendix B: Calculating Kilopascals with the HHD
Kilopascals can only be measured accurately using the included algometer attachment. Because
the attachment's tip is not precisely 1cmWKHÀUPZDUHDQGVRIWZDUHDXWRPDWLFDOO\DSSOLHVDPLQRU
adjustment to the value when converting to kilopascals. Below is a description of how the conversion
takes place:
1 lbf/cm2= 44.4822 kPa
Algometer tip: diameter = 7/16” !surface area = 0.96985 cm2
HHD reading of 1 lbf / 0.96985 cm2= 1.03109 lbf/cm2
HHD Conversion to kPa: 1.03109 lbf/cm2* 44.4822 kPa/(lbf/cm2) = 45.865 kPa
Conversion from lbf to kPa using algometer tip: 1 lbf !45.865 kPa

year from the date of shipment, except as provided hereinafter. The original
manufacturer’s warranty will be honored by Lafayette Instrument for items
not manufactured by Lafayette Instrument Company, i.e. resell items. This
assumes normal usage under commonly accepted operating parameters and
excludes consumable products.
Warranty period for repairs or used instrumentation purchased from Lafayette
Instrument is 90 days. Lafayette Instrument Company agrees either to
repair or replace, at its sole option and free of part charges to the customer,
instrumentation which, under proper and normal conditions of use, proves to
be defective within the warranty period. Warranty for any parts of such repaired
or replaced instrumentation shall be covered under the same limited warranty
and shall have a warranty period of 90 days from the date of shipment or the
remainder of the original warranty period whichever is greater. This warranty
and remedy are given expressly and in lieu of all other warranties, expressed or

Lafayette Instrument Company will correct any defect in warranted equipment
of its manufacture either, at its option, by return of the item to the factory, or
shipment of a repaired or replacement part. Lafayette Instrument Company will
not be obliged, however, to replace or repair any piece of equipment, which
has been abused, improperly installed, altered, damaged, or repaired by others.
Defects in equipment do not include decomposition, wear, or damage by
chemical action or corrosion, or damage incurred during shipment.
Limited Obligations Covered by this Warranty
1. In the case of instruments not of Lafayette Instrument Company
manufacture, the original manufacturer’s warranty applies.
2. Shipping charges under warranty are covered only in one direction. The
customer is responsible for shipping charges to the factory if return
of the part is required.
3. This warranty does not cover damage to components due to improper
installation by the customer.
4. Consumable and or expendable items, including but not limited to
electrodes, lights, batteries, fuses, O-rings, gaskets, and tubing, are
excluded from warranty.
5. Failure by the customer to perform normal and reasonable maintenance
on instruments will void warranty claims.
6. If the original invoice for the instrument is issued to a company that
is not the company of the end user, and not an authorized Lafayette
Instrument Company distributor, then all requests for warranty must
be processed through the company that sold the product to the end
user, and not directly to Lafayette Instrument Company.
