The phrase "assessed using hand" is not correct in standard written English.
It may be intended to describe a method of assessment that involves manual evaluation, but it lacks clarity and proper phrasing.
Example: "The results were assessed using hand, which allowed for a more personal touch in the evaluation process."
Alternatives: "evaluated manually" or "assessed by hand".

Adductor strength can be reliably assessed using hand-held dynamometry 28293333 or by the adductor squeeze test.
Peripheral muscle strength (grip, triceps, biceps, hamstrings, quadriceps and dorsiflexors) and physical functioning were objectively assessed using hand-held dynamometry and the six-minute walk test (6MWT); both were compared with age/ sex normative data.
