Pediatric Finger Prosthetic Treatment Options
Several treatment options are available for pediatric finger prosthetics, catering to the diverse needs of children with various levels of finger and hand differences. These options include passive, body-powered, electrically powered, hybrid, and activity-specific prostheses. Each type of prosthesis offers unique benefits and functionalities, ensuring that every child can find a suitable solution to enhance their daily activities and overall quality of life.
Passive Partial Hand Prostheses
Passive partial hand prostheses provide functional enhancement without active grasp and release capabilities. These prostheses, such as silicone restorations and positional digits, help children perform everyday tasks more effectively. They can be customized to match the child's skin tone or designed with unique and contemporary colors, ensuring functionality and aesthetic appeal.
Body-Powered Partial Hand Prostheses
Body-powered partial hand prostheses are controlled using the child's remaining wrist or hand movements. These prostheses can be joint-driven, cable-controlled, or wrist-driven, providing a natural and intuitive control mechanism. They are highly durable and offer a high-tech appearance, making them a practical choice for active children who need robust prosthetic solutions.
Electrically-Powered Partial Hand Prostheses
Electrically-powered partial hand prosthesis use tiny motors inside each finger to create motion, controlled by sensing electrodes or resistors detecting muscle movements. These prostheses provide variable grip strength, allowing children to perform tasks with precision and control. They are ideal for children who need high functionality and adaptability in their prosthetic devices.
Hybrid Partial Hand Prostheses
Hybrid partial hand prostheses combine elements of different prosthetic options to enhance functionality. Hybrid devices offer a tailored solution that meets each child's unique rehabilitation goals by integrating features from passive, body-powered, and electrically powered prostheses. These prostheses provide a comprehensive approach to improving a child's functional abilities.
