Hard-wired Epimysial Recordings from Normal and Reinnervated Muscle Using a Bone-anchored Device.

Unlabelled: A combined approach for prosthetic attachment and control using a transcutaneous bone-anchored device and implanted muscle electrodes can improve function for upper-limb amputees. The bone-anchor provides a transcutaneous feed-through for muscle signal recording. This approach can be combined with targeted muscle reinnervation (TMR) to further improve myoelectric control.
