Compensatory Movements With Axon-Hook and Greifer in Transradial Amputees

NCT04522349 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 8

Last updated 2020-08-21

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Upper limb amputees often report musculoskeletal pain due to exaggerated shoulder abduction movements. Previous studies on prosthetic hands showed that wrist orientation contributes to reduce shoulder compensatory movements. The hypothesis of this research is that prosthetic hooks may also provide better functional outcomes when offering wrist adjustments and a design that favors a good visualization of the grips. The objective of this study is to compare shoulder abduction, manual dexterity and satisfaction when using Axon-Hook and Greifer myoelectric hooks during repetitive tasks. Shoulder abduction and manual dexterity results are also compared with the sound side.
