Summary

Despite many advances in prosthesis development, there are still some areas that need to be improved. One of them is the weight of the devices which could cause muscular fatigue in long-term use of the prosthesis and even abandonment. This study aims to identify the desired improvements in prosthetic devices from the perspective of the users, therapists, and relatives. That would be done through two kinds of questionnaires about technology acceptance.
