Active Forearm Prosthesis (Traction Type) for Improved Upper Limb Function

A active (traction) forearm prosthesis is designed for persistent moderate impairment of neuromuscular, skeletal and movement-related (statodynamic) functions of the upper limb due to the presence of a forearm stump at any level or separation at the level of the wrist joint, with preserved mobility in the shoulder and elbow joints.
