Squegg

Squegg combines a connected medical device with a mobile application to assess and monitor grip strength and pinch strength. Designed for upper-extremity care, the platform can be used during in-person appointments and remote monitoring programmes, helping clinicians collect objective strength measurements and follow changes over time.

Grip and Pinch Strength Assessment

The Squegg device captures quantifiable grip and pinch strength data through interactive exercises, games and guided activities. Its engaging format can make strength assessment and prescribed exercises easier to incorporate into clinical sessions and home-based routines.

Squegg may support the assessment and monitoring of upper-extremity impairments associated with the hand, wrist and arm. Clinicians can use recorded measurements alongside their professional evaluation to understand performance, establish baselines and monitor longitudinal progress.

Research-Supported Approach

Squegg’s approach is based on evidence-informed practice and exercise physiology principles. Research studies have evaluated the validity and reliability of Squegg measurements in comparison with the Jamar dynamometer, supporting its use as an objective tool for grip-strength assessment.

Squegg PRO for Clinical and Remote Monitoring

Squegg PRO is a mobile application that connects with the Squegg device and provides a centralized platform for patient management and strength monitoring. It can support routine clinical care, remote programmes and clinical studies by allowing authorized professionals to review measurements, activity and progress from one digital hub.

• Assess grip and pinch strength using objective measurements
• Record and review changes in upper-extremity strength
• Manage patients participating in clinical or remote programmes
• Monitor assigned activity and patient engagement
• Support structured data collection for clinical studies
• Use interactive games and activities during prescribed exercises

Home Exercise Program Support

Squegg PRO can support home exercise programmes by allowing patients to complete assigned activities outside the clinic while generating patient-reported and device-recorded functional data. Clinicians can remotely review performance, adherence patterns and changes in strength over time.

The platform may also assist remote therapeutic monitoring workflows by providing objective, quantifiable metrics related to grip and pinch activity. Its suitability for a particular patient, programme or clinical purpose should be determined by a qualified healthcare professional. Squegg is not a substitute for professional diagnosis or individualized medical advice.
