Below Elbow Prosthetics
Most upper-extremity limb loss occurs below the elbow, ranging from the loss of one or more fingers to partial hand differences or limb loss at the transradial, or below-elbow, level. We recognize that the loss or difference of a hand is deeply personal. We have included information here for all options ranging from passive, body powered, and myoelectric.
Mechanical / Body-Powered
These prosthetic solutions can help you achieve a higher level of function and dexterity. They function through a mechanical harness system, using your shoulder and upper body movements to open, close, grasp, or release objects.
Durable and practical, designs for these prosthetic solutions can resemble human hands or take the form of a hook for improved utility.

Myoelectric
Myoelectric hands use electrical sensors placed on your skin that detect muscle movements in your residual limb and translate them into corresponding movements in the prosthetic hand.
Multiple hand positions and movements provide a more natural and intuitive experience. Designs range from realistic hand-like appearances to more utilitarian options for performing specific tasks, such as a hook.
