Hello all.

I am working on a thesis project involving upper extremity prostheses. I was wondering if anybody knew if there are any standardized tests for evaluating the functionality of different terminal devices. I have read several studies/case reports in which a set of activities of daily living was tested. However, the chosen activities vary from study to study, and I am guessing were chosen by the authors for that particular study. Validated manipulation or dexterity tests in general would also be helpful.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,
