About this study

Official title: Retrospective Study on Myoelectric Elbow-Wrist-Hand Orthosis User Outcomes During Home Use

The objective of this study is to retrospectively evaluate the outcomes and clinical benefits provided by this brace to adult patients with upper limb impairment or paralysis due to brachial plexus, stroke (CVA), spinal cord injury, or other neurological disease or injury.

Read the detailed description

The objective of this study is to retrospectively evaluate the outcomes and clinical benefits provided by this brace to adult patients with upper limb impairment or paralysis due to brachial plexus, stroke (CVA), spinal cord injury, or other neurological disease or injury.

The primary result in this study is a comparison of the Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand questionnaire results that were completed before and at least six months after receiving the MyoPro. A retrospective record review will be done to collect data regarding MyoPro user outcomes for individuals that received a MyoPro starting January 2021 and after. Additional data types such as demographics and clinical outcomes will be gathered. Participants may complete at least one follow-up session to record responses to additional inquiries from the research team.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Myoelectric Elbow-Wrist-Hand OrthosisDevice

    Also called MyoPro®

    An arm orthosis that uses myoelectric signals to control the level of mechanical assistance provided to a user's elbow and hand in order to overcome upper limb weakness or paralysis and achieve functional tasks.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (DASH)

    Validated outcome measure that asks an individual to self-report about the ability to perform certain upper limb activities. Questions are responded on a 5-point Likert scale.

    Measured: Pre-MyoPro

  2. Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (DASH)

    Validated outcome measure that asks an individual to self-report about the ability to perform certain upper limb activities. Questions are responded on a 5-point Likert scale.

    Measured: At least six months Post-MyoPro

What does the primary outcome measure?

Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (DASH) (time frame: Pre-MyoPro). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
