Harnessing technique for myoelectric arm prosthesis (a technical note).
One of the most serious obstacles in the clinical implementation of myoelectric control arm prostheses is the interface with the amputee, particularly the high level or the bilateral amputee . The need with many systems to monitor reliably up to nine myoelectric signals from muscles as remote as the upper trapezius, pectoralis and latissmusdorsi requires complex harnessing techniques which to n...
متن کاملA wrist-powered hand prosthesis.
This paper describes a prosthesis for patients who have had a partial amputation of the hand, or who have congenital absence of all or part of the hand. The prosthesis incorporates a new concept whereby the grip is operated by flexion and extension of the wrist. A covering for the prosthesis has been developed using a silicone polymer which produces a lifelike flexible glove. Thirteen patients ...
متن کاملProsthesis Prescription Protocol of the Arm (PPP-Arm): The implementation of a national prosthesis prescription protocol
BACKGROUND AND AIM In order to create more uniformity in the prescription of upper limb prostheses by Dutch rehabilitation teams, the development and implementation of a Prosthesis Prescription Protocol of the upper limb (PPP-Arm) was initiated. The aim was to create a national digital protocol to structure, underpin, and evaluate the prescription of upper limb prostheses for clients with acqui...
متن کاملTraining protocol for a powered shoulder prosthesis.
There is a scarcity of literature on rehabilitation training protocols for upper-limb prosthesis use. Seminal textbooks and articles describe protocols for training individuals to use conventional body-powered, myoelectric, or passive prosthetic devices and were written prior to the introduction of multifunction prosthetic hands and more advanced prosthetic technologies [1–3]. Furthermore, deta...
متن کاملEngineering platform and experimental protocol for design and evaluation of a neurally-controlled powered transfemoral prosthesis.
To enable intuitive operation of powered artificial legs, an interface between user and prosthesis that can recognize the user's movement intent is desired. A novel neural-machine interface (NMI) based on neuromuscular-mechanical fusion developed in our previous study has demonstrated a great potential to accurately identify the intended movement of transfemoral amputees. However, this interfac...
