Summary

Targeted Muscle Reinnervation increases the control signals available for commercial arm systems. A new type of control, pattern recognition, has been developed into a form that allows use with commercially available arm system. The goal of this project is a home trial, in which people who have had TMR will try the new controls and the new arm to find out if they are better than what is currently available. Home trials will also allow us to see what needs to be done to make our inventions work even better.

Conditions

  • Amputation
  • Amputation; Traumatic, Arm, Upper

Interventions

DEVICE

Commercial system

Transhumeral amputees who have had TMR will use a commercially available prosthesis with an elbow,wrist, and a hand with custom electronics and software for both direct and pattern recognition - based control.

DEVICE

RIC arm system

Transhumeral amputees who have had TMR will use the RIC arm system prosthesis with an elbow,wrist, and a hand with custom electronics and software for both direct and pattern recognition - based control.

OTHER

Direct Control

Transhumeral amputees who have had TMR will use either a commercially available prosthesis or the RIC arm system prosthesis with an elbow,wrist, and a hand with custom electronics and software for both direct control.

OTHER

Pattern Recognition

Transhumeral amputees who have had TMR will use either a commercially available prosthesis or the RIC arm system prosthesis with an elbow,wrist, and a hand with custom electronics and software for pattern recognition control.
