| The elbow disarticulation prosthesis is suitable for amputees with dissected elbow. The biggest advantage of the elbow break prosthesis is that the
complete upper arm guarantees sufficient leverage. The inertial force of the upper arm flexion can be used to drive the flexion of the forearm, and then the
elbow hinge can be used to lock it in a certain position, which saves effort.
Patients with disarticulation elbow joints can be equipped with cable-controlled elbow disarticulation prostheses or hybrid elbow disarticulation prostheses. |
