Use-Dependent Prosthesis Training Strengthens Contralateral Hemodynamic Brain Responses in a Young Adult With Upper Limb Reduction Deficiency: A Case Report

Abstract: The purpose of the current case study was to determine the influence of an 8-week home intervention training utilizing a partial hand prosthesis on hemodynamic responses of the brain and gross dexterity in a case participant with congenital unilateral upper-limb reduction deficiency (ULD). The case participant (female, 19 years of age) performed a gross manual dexterity task (Box and Block Test) while measuring brain activity (functional near-infrared spectroscopy; fNIRS) before and after an 8-weeks home inter… Show more

“…The width of transition region between the band pass limits H increases with the width of main lobe W . It decides the steepness of transition amongst frequencies [ 43 ]. This value was by default set to 15 by the nirslab according to signal condition [ 44 ].…”

“…To execute control commands for six arm motions, features for the signal classification were extracted. For fNIRS brain signals, signal means (SM), signal peak (SP), and signal minimum (min) [ 43 , 47 ] were extracted for thresholding purposes. The signal mean was calculated as (3): where N represents the total data points and X i represents the signal amplitude value.…”

“…Functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) task data were collected and analyzed using similar techniques from a previous case study ( Borrell et al, 2021 ). The main difference in this study is the inclusion of short separation detectors (~8 mm distance), which were used to filter out physiological noise from the scalp ( Zhang et al, 2021 ).…”

“…This is particularly promising for UL-deficient children and adolescents, as their prosthetic operating space should not be limited as they grow and develop. Prosthesis use in children has been found to affect the development of their brain, as well as their motor control strategies [72][73][74][75][76]. This could have implications for long-term prosthetic outcomes.…”
