Neural Enabled Prosthesis for Upper Limb Amputees

Subject group: Seeking Healthy Adult Upper Limb Amputee Volunteers

Do you miss your sense of touch? You could be part of a neuro-technology breakthrough!

Clinical Trial
Status: Open

Volunteers with transradial amputation are sought to be part of an on-going research study to test a new investigational prosthetic system allowed by the FDA for investigation. The system has the potential to deliver meaningful sensations of touch, grip force and hand opening to the user. If you are at least 18 years of age and have a below-the-elbow amputation that occurred 9 months ago or more, then you might be eligible to participate in a clinical trial for the investigational system.
