Restoration of sensorimotor function after amputation has remained challenging because the lack human-machine interfaces that provide reliable control, feedback, and attachment. Here, we present clinical implementation a transradial neuromusculoskeletal prosthesis-a bionic hand connected directly to user's nervous skeletal systems. In one person with unilateral below-elbow amputation, titanium implants were placed intramedullary in radius ulna bones, electromuscular constructs created...
Highly impaired individuals stand to benefit greatly from cutting-edge bionic technology, however concurrent functional deficits may complicate the adaptation of such technology. Here, we present a case in which visually-impaired individual with bilateral burn injury amputation was provided novel transradial neuromusculoskeletal prosthesis comprising skeletal attachment via osseointegration and implanted electrodes nerves muscles for control sensory feedback. Difficulties maintaining implant...
