Do you have limited upper extremity function?
We are developing a soft wearable device to assist with motion and function for adults with limited use of one or both hands.
During this research study, you will be asked to assist by providing information about your strength and range of motion, and testing the device components.
One session may last up to 3 hours. You may volunteer to participate in multiple sessions.
You will receive a $50 Amazon© Gift Card per visit. Compensation for travel expenses is also available.
Location: 52 Oxford Street, Cambridge, MA 02138
Eligible Participants:
- Are between 18-85 years old
- Have an upper extremity impairment affecting strength or range of motion on one or both sides
- Are otherwise healthy
- Are comfortable with having study visits photographed and/or videotaped
- Participants may be eligible if they are able to produce motion in their affected hand or not.
You may be eligible whether you are able to produce motion in your affected hand or not.
