Abstract:
Estimates are given of the type and number of prosthetic prehensors - both hooks and hands - used in the USA, United Kingdom, West Germany and Sweden by upper limb amputees. Implications are made for differences between countries and for thorough assessment of amputees before clinical fittings.
