A powered prosthetic hand for partial hand loss
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have partial hand loss on one side, with at least your index and/or middle finger missing at the knuckle.
- Your thumb on that hand is still present and works fully.
- Your hand is fully healed from the amputation surgery (no open wounds).
- You are 18 years old or older.
- You speak English fluently.

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.
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 trial tests a new way to control a bionic hand for people who have a below-elbow amputation. The goal is to make the hand easier and more natural to use.
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 trial tests a new way to control a powered prosthetic arm called Glide control. Researchers want to see if it stays reliable over time for people who have lost part of their arm below or above the elbow.
This trial tests a small implant that reads muscle signals to help you control a prosthetic hand more naturally. You may qualify if you have a missing hand or arm below the elbow and currently use or could use a myoelectric (muscle-signal) prosthetic.
