Partial Hand Prosthesis

Cassie Peeters

Hi All

I am looking for ideas for a new patient of mine. She is a 30 year old
partial hand- congenital amputee who has never used any type of prosthesis
in the past. She has wrist motion and two “nubbins” with some movement but
minimal strength. She is looking for both function and something that
“looks more like a hand”. She is on state aid. I would appreciate any
input, ideas, etc as I am brainstorming on this one. Thanks in advance!
