A new prosthesis for the upper limb. Abstract Text:

D W Lamb,T D Dick,W B Douglas,

We describe the development of a body-powered upper limb prosthesis fitted with a cosmetic functioning hand. The features and advantages of the new design--the PMR (Princess Margaret Rose) prosthesis--are discussed and the clinical results in 15 patients fitted with the prosthesis after above-elbow amputation are described.
