Types of Prosthetics
There are four main types of prosthetics:
1. Transradial
The transradial prosthesis is a prosthetic arm that is attached below the arm. There are two types of transradial prosthetics. First is the passive prosthesis device which is just used for cosmetic purposes and is mainly used as artificial fingers.
The other type is called the active prosthesis device. It has further two types. First is the cable-operated device that is attached to the affected arm and other shoulder and the user manually controls it. The other type is the myoelectric prosthetic implant. It detects movements from upper arm muscles and sends signals to special sensors in the prosthetic arm for movements. It takes some time to get used to this type of prosthetics. Lifeforce Limbs & Reh
