Dear List,
I have a patient who is interested in fundraising and purchasing a high end myoelectric hand. She is a 20 year old congenital amputee with a wrist Disarticulation level presentation. She would be looking at it for daily use and works in an office-type environment so I would predict low wear and tear or abuse to the hand.
I am looking for any prosthetist or patient’s feedback regarding these hands, specifically the bebionic hand, i-limb, and michaelangelo hand. Comparisons between them during patient trials, functionality, ease of use, durability, long-term use, etc, would be much appreciated. Anything to aid in helping myself and this patient decide between these options would be helpful.
Thank You.
