Purposes: This study was conducted to test the concurrent validity, test–retest and interrater reliability of bag modified sphygmomanometer and Jamar grip dynamometer. Subjects and Methods: Seventy patients of distal radius fracture (67 colles’ and 3 smith fracture) with mean age 45.03 ± 10.45 years, were recruited to evaluate the grip strength by Jamar grip dynamometer and bag modified sphygmomanometer after modifying the (KBM) sphygmomanometer in a bag and calibrated in box of plates. Validity was explained by the correlation between hand grip strength that was assessed by modified sphygmomanometer and Jamar dynamometer by Person Correlation Coefficient. Test–retest reliability and inter–rater reliability was expressed as Intra–class Correlation Coefficients (ICCs). All data was analyzed by (SPSS) version 25 for windows. Results: There were correlations between hand grip strength that was assessed by modified sphygmomanometer and Jamar dynamometer in the study group was strong positive significant correlation in concurrent validity (r = 0.852, p = 0.001), The modified sphygmomanometer showed excellent in test–retest reliability with Intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) was 0.996 and in interrater reliability with 0.993 Intraclass correlation coefficient. Conclusion: The bag modified sphygmomanometer is a concurrently valid, test–retest and interrater reliable instruments for measuring hand grip of distal radius fracture patients with different gender and fixation types; تم ضم سبعين مريضا بمتوسط عمر45.03 ± 10.45 عاما لتقييم قوة قبضة اليد بمقياس الجامر دينامومتر وحقيبة مقياس ضغط الدم المعدل وتم معايرته في علبة مع طارات وزن وتم اختبار هدف الدراسة من حيث الصلاحية بمعامل ارتباط بيرسون ومن حيث الموثوقية الاختبار وإعادة الاختبار وثبات النتائج مع تغيير المقيمين بمعاملات الارتباط داخل الطبقة.(ICCs) وقد تم تحليل جميع البيانات بواسطة برنامج (SPSS) الإصدار 25 لنظام التشغيل. حقيبة جهاز ضغط الدم المعدل تمتلك صلاحية متزامنة وموثوقية الاختبار وإعادة الاختبار وموثوقية ثبات النتائج مع تغيير المقيمين لقياس قوة قبضة اليد لمرضى كسور مفصل الرسغ مع اختلاف أنواع الثبيت ونوع المريض ER -
