To Assess the Utility of the Point Mini in a Clinical Take-home Study

Testing Point Mini's effectiveness in a home study.

Recruiting
3-17 years
All
Phase N/A

This study is about testing a new prosthetic system called the Point Mini. A prosthetic is an artificial device that helps people who have lost a limb. The study will compare the Point Mini to the current prosthetics used by 14 children who have partial hand deficiencies, which means they do not have a full hand. For one month, the children will use their current prosthetics, and for two months, they'll use the Point Mini. Researchers will check how well they can use both hands, how they feel about the prosthetic, and how much they wear it.

  • This study lasts for three months, with one month using the old device and two months with the Point Mini.
  • Participants must be between the ages of 3 and 17 and speak English or Spanish.
  • Children with unhealed wounds, significant cognitive or physical issues cannot join.

Participating in this study may help improve prosthetic devices for children in the future.
