3D and electromyographic evaluation of upper extremity movement patterns of trans-radial amputees

Abstract

<p>Assessment tests are the gold standard to measure the functionality of hand prostheses, but they evaluate how fast a patient is able to perform a specific task and do not assess quality of movement. The wide range of UL movements leads to a big challenge to assess and interpret data. Therefore, UL 3D motion analysis is a difficult task in clinical practice, thus there is still a major lack of published normative data. Further research is needed to understand the effectiveness of medical treatments.</p
