Greetings everyone, and thank you in advance for your consideration here.I'll try to keep things as short and simple as possible. I have a bilateral trans-radial patient requesting a new prosthesis. He uses a Myo system with Greifer TD and gets good results. His biggest challenge is durability. Don't get me wrong, the Greifer IS durable. But he uses it CONSTANTLY and it just wears down. I have suggested we trial the Motion Control ETD, as they report their brushless motor may make it more durable. My question then is does anyone have direct durability experience between these two? Or, do you know of a more durable third option? Thank you for your time, and I'll post a summary of responses.
