The Upper Limb Library / TMR

Myoelectric prostheses use batteries and are ultimately controlled by input from electrical signals generated by muscles in the residual limb.

TMR is a surgical procedure available to upper limb amputees that can help alleviate pain issues and provide better control of a myoelectric prosthesis.

Trauma can cause damage to a nerve resulting in swelling of the nerve or a jumbled overgrowth of nerve cells which is called a neuroma. Learn more.
