A Pilot Trial to Assess Implantable Myoelectric Sensors (IMES) to Improve Prosthetic Function for Transhumeral Amputees with Targeted Muscle Reinnervation

Abstract

The overall project goal is to investigate the functional performance of transhumeral amputees who have received targeted muscle reinnervation with EMG signals measured intramuscularly using a fully wireless implant. This year we have prepared a biocompatibility test plan, secured components, and submitted regulatory protocols to ACURO. We have received initial feedback and are in process of addressing the comments.
