Study of the Point Mini prosthetic hand for children
Part of Genetic & congenital, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study tests a new type of prosthetic hand device called the Point Mini. It is designed for children and teens who have partial hand differences, and aims to see how well it works in everyday use at home.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial tests a new powered prosthetic hand system for people who have lost part of one hand but still have their thumb. It aims to see if the device helps with daily tasks and improves quality of life.
This trial tests how different numbers and types of muscle signals (myoelectric) affect control of a prosthetic hand and wrist. It aims to find the best setup for people with a below-elbow amputation who have used a myoelectric prosthetic before.
This study is testing different ways to control an arm prosthesis for people missing a hand or lower arm (transradial amputation). It may help compare how well people can use a myoelectric (muscle-signal) prosthesis using either direct control or pattern recognition.
This study is testing new, more natural ways to control an advanced prosthetic hand for people with below-elbow amputations. It may help you move the prosthetic more easily and intuitively.
This study tests a new way to connect nerve signals from your amputated arm to a prosthetic hand, which may help you control it more naturally and feel what the hand is touching.
This trial tests a new approach for rehabilitation after an upper-limb amputation to help improve your ability to intentionally control a prosthetic and regain a sense of position (“proprioception”). You may be considered if you are planning an elective upper-arm or below-elbow amputation and can safely have surgery and follow up closely.
