Primary Outcome Measures

<p>Depending on the performance of the participants, who are asked to perform a<br /><br>maximal electromyogram (EMG) for 2 seconds we will use a) the highest value of<br /><br>the EMG, b) the mean, or c) the median for analysis. We will also measure the<br /><br>control of the hand by asking the participants to control opening and closing<br /><br>the hand at slow speed, at comfortable speed, and at high speed. The speed and<br /><br>the aperture of the hand will be measured. </p><br>
