Q

concepts behind UE amputation

A

cosmesis is more important than function
proficiency with UE prosthesis takes longer
most successful when viewed as tool/AD
functional difficulty proportional to amputation level

Q

UE amputation level

A

shoulder disarticulation, trans-humeral/elbow disarticulation, trans-radial/wrist disarticulation, trans-metacarpal/partial hand
longer is more pronation/supination

Q

UE types of suspensions

A

harness
pin-lock liner
suction
anatomical/self-suspending

17
Q

harness suspension UE

A
  • the classic
  • (+): simple (cables), easy to maintain (few parts), durable, accomodate heavy applications (carry heavy loads), easy donning and doffing
  • (-) can be uncomfortable (into axilla, impingement), poor cosmesis
  • system of straps/buckles around shoulders, back, chest
  • used at all amputation levels - but is only option with should disarticulation or very short TH amputation
  • many variations
18
Q

UE pin-lock liner suspension

A
  • (+): comfortable, cushion bony prominences, reduce shear forces
  • (-): somewhat difficult to don, harnessing usually still needed
  • silicone or gel garment worn on surface of limb with distal attachment point which engages a mechanical lock
  • ideal for passive prostheses
  • mid-short length TH and TR
19
Q

UE suction suspension

A
  • (+): interface with myoelectric control, reduce or eliminate harnessing
  • (-): difficult to don - pull sock, donning sleeve, distal end discoloration, very sensitive to volume fluctuations
  • skin-tight fit, seal to walls of socket, one-way expulsion valve
  • most often used at TH level, some TR
20
Q

anatomical suspension/self-suspending UE

A
  • (+): integrates with myoelectric control, reduce or eliminate harnessing
  • (-): difficult to don, push in or pull sock, reduced ROM - risk of losing contact with epicondyles if too much flexion/extension
  • socket encompasses bony prominences (humeral epidcondyles)
  • trans-radial and wrist disarticulation
  • can hybridize with suction
21
Q

types of power strategies

A

body power
passive
externally powered

22
Q

body power

A
  • most common, highly functional
  • older tech, not obsolete
  • individual generates force necessary to cause movement
  • body power and cable control operate together - scapulothoracic
  • harnessing and cable system capture Force and Excursion produced by other body movements and use it to operate the prosthesis
23
Q

force and excursion

A
  • force: strength or energy causing motion
  • excursion: movement from axis, distance traveled, translates to cable travel
  • each amputation level requires different movements to capture force and excursion
24
Q

force and excursion examples

A
  • shoulder disarticulation: biscapular abduction, scapular elevation, chest expansion
  • TH/elbow disarticulation: GH flexion, biscapular abduction, scapular depression/extension/abduction
  • TR/wrist disarticulation: GH flexion, biscpaular abduction
25
passive power
* primarily prosthetic/aesthetic * passive does not mean non-functional: can be function * functions: swivel shoulder, locking elbow, rotating wrist (can also lock), passive spring-loaded terminal device * prepositioned with sound side
26
UE externally powered
* controlled by body, powered by motor * on-board motor provides force for motion * terminal device, wrist unit, and elbow each motorized and user-selected to function independently as determined by the control strategy
27
types of control strategies
cable control myo-electric hybrid
28
cable control
integrated with body power * harnessing to capture force and excursion * proper harnessing is essential (fit) * analogous to bike brake lever/shifter integrated with external power * harness connects to a linear transducer or switch
29
myo-electric control
* most common externally powered prosthesis * electrodes embedded in (usually suction) scoket wall for contact with skin * electrodes capture electrical activity of a muscle for contact with skin * electrodes capture electrical activity of a muscle contraction and convert it into a signal * electrode placement: 2 electrodes on antagonistic muscle groups, 1 electrode on any viable site * many control strategies are possible based on number of electrodes and programming
30
UE myo-electric control example
TH 2 electrodes * flexor: elbow flexion, pronation, TD close * extensor: elbow extension, supination, TD close * co-contract: component selection 1 electrode * contraction: one selected movement, TD close * program opens TD when relaxed
31
UE hybrid control
* combo of cable control and myo-electric control examples: * body power cable control elbow, external power 1 channel myo control TD * OR * external power 2 channel elbow, body power cable control TD
32
terminal devices replicate
some/all hand function
33
grasp patterns
* cylindrical grasp * tip * hook or snap * palmar * spherical grasp * lateral
34
voluntary open terminal devices
* most common - default is closed * use force/power to open * force and excursion open, spring or rubber bands close * pinch force is preset * max pinch force when fully relaxed
35
voluntary close terminal devices
* open by default * force and excursion close, spring or rubber bands open * pinch force is determined by force exerted by user * TD is fully open when relax
36
facts about terminal devices
* can be activity specific * harness good for increased load * body power for more gross motor control
