Osseo-neuromuscular interface for below-elbow amputations (e-OPRA)
Video on the first patient with below-elbow amputation implanted with osseo-neuromuscular interfaces (e-OPRA).
Electrodes implanted in nerves and muscles allow for the extraction of control information and to provide intuitive sensory feedback (”feeling”).
Osseointegrated implants allow for direct skeletal attachment of the prosthesis, while also serving as safe, long-term stable, and bidirectional communication interfaces to the implanted electrodes.
