Upper Limb Prosthesis

At Biodesign, we specialize in a comprehensive range of upper limb prosthetic solutions, including partial hand, wrist disarticulation, transradial (below-elbow), transhumeral (above-elbow), shoulder disarticulation, and forequarter amputations.

Our team works with the latest advancements in prosthetic technology—from functional myoelectric hands and multi-articulating terminal devices to lightweight, anatomically contoured sockets and intuitive control systems. We stay current through ongoing education, collaboration with leading manufacturers, and hands-on experience to ensure every device we fit is tailored for both function and comfort. Whether it’s for daily use, work, or specialized activities, we’re committed to delivering upper limb prostheses that restore confidence, independence, and quality of life.

Conventional Prosthetics

A conventional transradial (below-elbow) or transhumeral (above elbow) prosthesis utilizes a shoulder harness and cable system to operate a prosthetic hand or hook. It might seem rudimentary, but these tried and tested components are the most durable designs available today. Conventional prostheses are highly serviceable and require minimal maintenance and are an excellent choice for those prioritizing function and robustness.
