Introducing an adjustable upper limb prosthesis into a Ugandan clinical service: impacts on free living behaviour and prosthetic use (2025)
Journal Article

Access to prosthetic services in Uganda is poor, negatively impacting people with upper limb difference in function, community participation, and employment. Technologies to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of services are needed, but there i...

Validation of a marker-based motion capture method for measuring the coupling between the ulna and a bypass socket attached to the forearm (2025)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Background
Poor comfort and function are consistently linked to prosthetic non-use and abandonment [1]. Current prosthetic devices are considered to “not offer sufficient functional advantage to compensate for any inconvenience or discomfort involve...

Pigs Going Out on a Limb: Proof of concept of a video fluoroscopy method for measuring trans-radial socket-residuum coupling (2025)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Background
Complaints about comfort and function are consistently associated with prosthetic non-use and abandonment, and the design of sockets likely impacts both aspects [1]. Socket fit can be considered the compromise between socket function and...
