Overview of an ongoing clinical trial on hand prostheses: Toward use of synergy-based prosthetic hands for activities of daily living by transradial amputees
Key Points
The trial aims to optimize prosthetic hands and enhance their acceptance among transradial amputees.
Conducting a clinical trial focused on synergy-based prosthetic designs.
Evaluating the effectiveness of prostheses in activities of daily living.
Assessing user experiences and acceptance of prosthetic hands.
Early findings indicate potential improvements in daily living activities with synergy-based designs.
User feedback suggests increased comfort and functionality with the new prosthetic hands.
Abstract
The design of our clinical trial could inform the design of clinical trials targeting the optimization of prostheses and their acceptance by prosthetic users.
