New treatment option for Amputation of Upper Limb
Official title Using Sensorimotor Reorganization Following Upper Limb Amputation to Improve Prosthetic Control
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07666204
What this study is testing
- What it's testing
- Amputation of an upper limb results in a disruption of the sensorimotor loop and a reorganization of the nervous system, leading to the emergence of a phantom limb and the adaptation of compensatory motor strategies. This project aims to leverage these phenomena (induced sensations, phantom mobility, and compensations) to improve control, sensory feedback, and the appropriation of prostheses, in order to reduce cognitive load and musculoskeletal disorders.
