Prosthesis, Volume 3, Issue 2

2021 June - 7 articles

Cover Story: Research within the field of upper limb prosthetics is transitioning towards a hybrid approach that gathers data from short-term laboratory-based testing and long-term in-home trials. This range of data can assist in translating research into clinical practice, which could potentially benefit users of upper limb prosthetics or clinical care. Collaboration between researchers and multiple stakeholders during such studies is crucial in assisting the transition. This paper presents an example of a co-creation model that can provide a framework to enable collaborative research with multiple stakeholders throughout a study. In addition, this paper presents a broad perspective on the challenges and opportunities of how co-creation can contribute to the translation of academic knowledge into clinical practice for upper limb prosthetics.
