Journal ArticleDOI
Targeted muscle reinnervation for real-time myoelectric control of multifunction artificial arms.
Todd A. Kuiken,Guanglin Li,Blair A. Lock,Robert D. Lipschutz,Laura A. Miller,K.A. Stubblefield,Kevin Englehart +6 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that reinnervated muscles can produce sufficient EMG information for real-time control of advanced artificial arms, as well as improving the function of prosthetic arms.
Journal ArticleDOI
The use of targeted muscle reinnervation for improved myoelectric prosthesis control in a bilateral shoulder disarticulation amputee
TL;DR: A novel method for the control of a myoelectric upper limb prosthesis was achieved in a patient with bilateral amputations at the shoulder disarticulation level using the targeted muscle reinnervation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Targeted reinnervation for enhanced prosthetic arm function in a woman with a proximal amputation: a case study
Todd A. Kuiken,Todd A. Kuiken,Laura A. Miller,Laura A. Miller,Robert D. Lipschutz,Blair A. Lock,K.A. Stubblefield,Paul D. Marasco,Ping Zhou,Gregory A. Dumanian,Gregory A. Dumanian +10 more
TL;DR: Targeted sensory reinnervation provides a potential pathway for meaningful sensory feedback to the missing hand and improved prosthetic function and ease of use in this patient.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hand Rehabilitation Following Stroke: A Pilot Study of Assisted Finger Extension Training in a Virtual Environment
TL;DR: Although the overall gains were slight, the general acceptance of the novel rehabilitation tools by a population with substantial impairment suggests that a larger randomized controlled trial, potentially in a subacute population, may be warranted.
Journal ArticleDOI
Improved Myoelectric Prosthesis Control Using Targeted Reinnervation Surgery: A Case Series
TL;DR: Targeted reinnervation is a surgical technique developed to increase the number of myoelectric input sites available to control an upper-limb prosthesis because signals from the nerves related to specific movements are used to control those missing degrees-of-freedom.
