Overview
Brief Summary
Implication and evaluation of a non-invasive sensory feedback system in hand prostheses in everyday life.
Detailed Description
A non invasive sensory feedback system in embedded in the prosthetic socket will be tested on forearm amputees in their everday life. Pretests and follow up will contain objective outcome assessments and semi-structured interviews.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Assessment of Myoelectric Control - ACMC
Time Frame: 2 days
An observational assessment where you rate the subjects' capacity of myoelectric control in a bimanual activity. The scoring was made by an experienced external rater.
Task performance questionnaire
Time Frame: 2 days
21 questions about sensory feedback from the prosthesis, agency, body ownership, performance in activity and phantom limb pain. Self-administered estimation on a 7 grade Likert-scale.
Pointing task
Time Frame: 2 days
A objective measurement of body ownership. The subject are asked to mark on a ruler, with the hand prosthesis hidden, where they estimate the location of the prosthetic index finger.
