The efficacy of robot-assisted training for patients with upper limb amputations who use myoelectric prostheses: a randomized controlled pilot study.
International journal of rehabilitation research. Internationale Zeitschrift fur Rehabilitationsforschung. Revue internationale de recherches de readaptation
Mar 1, 2022
The aim of this pilot study was to investigate whether a movement therapy robot can improve skills in using a myoelectric prosthesis by patients with upper limb amputations. This prospective randomized, controlled study included a total of eleven pat...

Self-Contained Neuromusculoskeletal Arm Prostheses.
The New England journal of medicine
Apr 30, 2020
We report the use of a bone-anchored, self-contained robotic arm with both sensory and motor components over 3 to 7 years in four patients after transhumeral amputation. The implant allowed for bidirectional communication between a prosthetic hand an...
Exploring the Impact of Machine-Learned Predictions on Feedback from an Artificial Limb.
IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
Jun 1, 2019
Learning to get by without an arm or hand can be very challenging, and existing prostheses do not yet fill the needs of individuals with amputations. One promising solution is to improve the feedback from the device to the user. Towards this end, we ...
On the Design of a Novel Underactuated Robotic Finger Prosthesis for Partial Hand Amputation.
IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
Jun 1, 2019
This paper presents a novel robotic finger prosthesis for partially amputated patients who have lost a thumb and index finger. The challenging issues were to design i) a three-degree-of-freedom (DOF) underactuated mechanism that mimics intact finger ...
Preservation of hand movement representation in the sensorimotor areas of amputees.
Brain : a journal of neurology
Dec 1, 2017
Denervation due to amputation is known to induce cortical reorganization in the sensorimotor cortex. Although there is evidence that reorganization does not lead to a complete loss of the representation of the phantom limb, it is unclear to what exte...
[Prosthetic reconstruction of the upper extremity].
Der Unfallchirurg
May 1, 2016
BACKGROUND: Prosthetic replacement after amputation or loss of function of the upper extremity has gained therapeutic value over the last years. The control of upper arm prostheses has been refined by the use of selective nerve transfers, and the ind...
[Endo-exo prostheses : Osseointegrated percutaneously channeled implants for rehabilitation after limb amputation].
Der Unfallchirurg
May 1, 2016
BACKGROUND: In 1999 the first endo-exo femoral prosthesis (EEFP) was implanted in Germany in a patient who had suffered a traumatic above-knee amputation. This procedure involves a skeletally anchored exoprosthetic device that is inserted into the re...
Effect of clinical parameters on the control of myoelectric robotic prosthetic hands.
Journal of rehabilitation research and development
Jan 1, 2016
Improving the functionality of prosthetic hands with noninvasive techniques is still a challenge. Surface electromyography (sEMG) currently gives limited control capabilities; however, the application of machine learning to the analysis of sEMG signa...
