User‐Centred Design of Multi‐DoF Prosthetic Wrist Controllers: Performance and Preference in Daily Living Tasks

Healthcare Technology Letters, Volume 13, Issue 1, January/December 2026.
This study evaluates an IMU‐based, synergy‐driven control framework for multi‐DoF prosthetic wrists, evaluated across daily living tasks in a virtual environment. Results show that task‐specific controllers reduced compensatory limb motions and effort, while a dual‐axis configuration was preferred in complex orientation tasks regardless of task ...

A prótese mioeléctrica para os amputados de antebraço.

Acta Médica Portuguesa, 1989
The authors make a revision of the principles of action of the myoelectric prosthesis for the forearm amputees and describe their components. The indications and contra-indications (French law) are also referred. We can say as a conclusion that the great

Histologically Verified Dupuytren′s Disease in a 6‐Year‐Old: A Case Report and Literature Review

Case Reports in Orthopedics, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Dupuytren′s disease typically affects adults and only rarely occurs in children. We present a case of a 6‐year‐old boy with histologically confirmed palmar fibromatosis. Although uncommon, Dupuytren′s disease should be included in the differential diagnosis for palmar lesions in the pediatric population.

Removal of ECG Artifacts from Myoelectric Prosthesis Control Signals

, 2005
We investigated removal of electrocardiogram (ECG) artifacts from the myoelectric prosthesis control signals, taken from the reinnervated pectoralis muscles of a patient with bilateral amputations at shoulder disarticulation level.

Prosthesis usability experience is associated with extent of upper limb prosthesis adoption: A Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) analysis.

PLoS ONE
Factors associated with upper limb prosthesis adoption are not well understood. In this study, we explored how prosthesis usability experience relates to the extent of prosthesis adoption through the development of a structural equation model (SEM ...

Upper extremity prosthetic selection influences loading of transhumeral osseointegrated systems.

PLoS ONE, 2020
Percutaneous osseointegrated (OI) implants are increasingly viable as an alternative to socket suspension of prosthetic limbs. Upper extremity prostheses have also become more complex to better replicate hand and arm function and attempt to recreate pre ...

Myocontrol is closed-loop control: incidental feedback is sufficient for scaling the prosthesis force in routine grasping

Journal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation, 2018
Background Sensory feedback is critical for grasping in able-bodied subjects. Consequently, closing the loop in upper-limb prosthetics by providing artificial sensory feedback to the amputee is expected to improve the prosthesis utility.
