Amputation; Traumatic, Hand
Conditions
Brief summary
This study will allow us to assess whether the Point Partial confers functional and psychological benefit to persons with partial finger amputations in an unconstrained environment. The use of the Point Partial outside of the laboratory will allow for a wider variety of uses and for a more realistic simulation of the product being used in the field. This well-controlled trial (without randomization of subjects) will produce the first Level II-1 medical evidence in our field of partial hand prosthetic design as described by the 1989 U.S. Preventive Services Task Force. Furthermore, this study will provide important data to support providers who are requesting reimbursement from payers.

Scale Title: Overall Performance. Scale Minimum: 0. Scale Maximum: 100. Higher score indicates better outcome. |
| Disability of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (DASH) | Day 0: no prosthesis (pre-fitting) | The Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (DASH) questionnaire is a 30-item questionnaire that looks at the ability of a patient to perform certain upper extremity activities. This questionnaire is a self-report questionnaire that patients can rate difficulty and interference with daily life on a 5 point Likert scale. Scale Title: DASH Score. Scale Minimum: 0. Scale Maximum: 100. Higher score indicates worse outcome. |
