Abstract
Optimizing treatments requires the prevention of diagnostic errors. The use of shortcuts, cognitive biases, may lead to errors of judgement that can impair clinical reasoning and distort decision-making. Objective, quantifiable and comparable assessment is a safeguard against this, and for instance force quantification is used for this purpose. We will present here the use of hand-held dynamometers with recommendations for best practice as well as simple but essential tools for interpreting the results. Indeed, the use of these easy-to-use dynamometers requires rigour to ensure the quality of measurements and data analysis by/for the clinician. The use of this equipment should be widely promoted and democratized in informed clinical practice.
