Therefore, we performed a comparison study between these two devices in patients with immune\u2010mediated neuropathies. Grip strength data were collected in 102 cross\u2010sectional stable and 163 longitudinal (new diagnoses or changing condition) patients with Guillain\u2010Barr\u00e9 syndrome (<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">GBS<\/jats:styled-content>), chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">CIDP<\/jats:styled-content>), gammopathy\u2010related polyneuropathy (<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">MGUSP<\/jats:styled-content>), and multifocal motor neuropathy (<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">MMN<\/jats:styled-content>). Stable patients were assessed twice (validity\/reliability studies). Longitudinal patients were assessed 3\u20105\u2009times during 1\u2009year. Responsiveness comparison between the two tools was examined using combined anchor\u2010\/distribution\u2010based minimum clinically important difference (<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">MCID<\/jats:styled-content>) techniques. Patients were asked to indicate their preference for the Jamar or Vigorimeter. Both tools correlated highly with each other (\u03c1\u2009=\u20090.86, p\u2009&lt;\u20090.0001) and showed good intra\u2010class correlation coefficients (Jamar [Right\/Left hands]: <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">ICC<\/jats:styled-content> 0.997\/0.96; Vigori: <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">ICC<\/jats:styled-content> 0.95\/0.98). Meaningful changes were comparable between the two instruments, being higher in <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">GBS<\/jats:styled-content> compared to <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">CIDP<\/jats:styled-content> patients. In <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">MGUSP<\/jats:styled-content>\/<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">MMN<\/jats:styled-content> poor responsiveness was seen. Significant more patients preferred the Vigorimeter. In conclusion, validity, reliability, and responsiveness aspects were comparable between the Jamar dynamometer and Vigorimeter. However, based on patients' preference, the Vigorimeter is recommended in future studies in immune\u2010mediated neuropathies.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/jns.12126","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2015,6,26]],"date-time":"2015-06-26T10:42:47Z","timestamp":1435315367000},"page":"269-276","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":44,"title":["Grip strength comparison in immune\u2010mediated neuropathies: Vigorimeter vs. Jamar"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"20","author":[{"given":"Thomas H.
