Assessment of the upper limb of the tetraplegic patient
2022, Hand Surgery and RehabilitationCitation Excerpt :Variability in units of measurement. Variability in testing conditions: recommendations from the American Association for Hand Surgery are only followed in some studies (measurements taken with the arm in adduction, elbow 90°, neutral pronation–supination of the forearm) [13]. Some authors also specify the exact position of the wrist, elbow, and shoulder.

2012, Handbook of Clinical NeurologyCitation Excerpt :Objectives of surgical reconstruction of the upper extremities may include restoration of elbow extension, wrist extension, finger extension and flexion, and thumb pinch. For young people with C5 or weak C6 lesions who would not be candidates for reconstructive surgery, implantable functional electrical stimulation (FES) systems have been used to restore grasp and release (Mulcahey et al., 1997). Similar to adults with SCI, the Freehand System® in adolescents improved satisfaction and independence but, unfortunately was removed from the market (Mulcahey, 1996b).
