Influence of standardized activities on validity of Assessment of Capacity for Myoelectric Control

Abstract: Abstract-The Assessment of Capacity for Myoelectric Control (ACMC) is an observation-based clinical tool that evaluates ability to control a myoelectric prosthetic hand during bimanual activities. Two validity aspects were investigated: potential bias interaction between prosthesis users and activities performed during assessment, and potential bias interaction between activities and different user characteristics (sex or prosthetic side). Six activities were standardized for the ACMC. Upper-limb myoelectric p… Show more

“…A certified ACMC rater observes how the prosthesis user controls the myoelectric prosthetic hand during the activity and rates the items. The potential influence of the activities on the ACMC ability measures was examined previously and shown to have no significant effect on the result [21]. In the present study, each participant performed a standardized activity in the test and retest sessions.…”

“…The ACMC is a Rasch-built measure [9][10][11]21], and the assessment result is routinely reported in Rasch ability measures. Therefore, the item raw scores are converted to Rasch ability measures using the Many-Facets Rasch Model (MFRM) [24].…”

“…The Assessment of Capacity of Myoelectric Control (ACMC) incorporates client-chosen activities assessed with standardized methods [15]; this makes the evaluation of this measure difficult because of the variety of tasks that can be performed. However, given the applicability of this measure to the clinical population of interest, one of the suggested activities in the ACMC manual (ie, packing a suitcase) will be used to represent the ACMC.…”

“…Assessment of capacity for myoelectric control (ACMC) [76,77] is a Rasch rating scale that is used to detect expected change in a person’s ability using objective variables. There are 30 items that evaluate a prosthetic arm’s ability to do specific functions that involve gripping, holding, releasing, and coordinating between limbs.…”
