Analysis of Grip Strength of Women Workers Using IoT Digital Devices

초록

The purpose of this study was to determine the grip strength of female workers in the beauty industry and to examine differences between various grip strength measuring devices. The specific research objectives are to determine the differences in grip strength according to the age and work area of female workers, as well as to assess the accuracy of IoT grip strength measuring devices compared to existing devices. This revision clarifies the objectives and improves sentence flow. The study included 121 beauty industry workers, comprising 19 skin care workers, 18 nail care workers, 66 hair designers, and 18 makeup artists. Three types of grip strength measuring devices were used: a Japanese digital grip dynamometer (Takai TKK-5401, Takei Scientific Instruments Co., Ltd., Tokyo, Japan), a Chinese digital grip dynamometer (Camry EH101, China), and a Korean wireless digital grip dynamometer (Soundbody-grip, Korea). Each device was used to measure grip strength twice, with the average value used for analysis. The results showed no significant differences in grip strength across different beauty industry fields, but grip strength varied by age. Additionally, there was a trend of decreasing grip strength with increasing work experience. This study underscores the potential of a new IoT grip strength measuring device and provides insights into the unique grip strength characteristics of female workers in the beauty industry. © (2024), (Elite Scientific Publications).
