Posted on behalf of the Principal Investigator, Todd Kuiken, MD, PhD:
The Center for Bionic Medicine at the Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago, and Northwestern University are looking for volunteers to participate in a research study titled: Application of Targeted Reinnervation for People with Transradial Amputation (STU00101444). We are inviting those who have a unilateral below-elbow amputation to do laboratory and at home testing of a multi-articulating hand. Participants must be willing to undergo Targeted Muscle Reinnervation surgery - an established surgical procedure that provides easier, more intuitive prosthesis control for individuals with arm amputation. Research participants will be compensated.
Participants must meet the following criteria:
* Between the ages of 18 - 95
* Have a unilateral below-elbow amputation
* English speaking only
* Available for 6 visits over the course of 12 months
* Previous myoelectric user preferred
