Bionic arm prostheses are applied to people who have been amputated or have a congenital arm deficiency. These prostheses are designed to partially or completely replace the function of the arm. The following situations may be suitable for the use of bionic arm prosthesis:

 

Post-Amputation: People who have lost an arm due to reasons such as accidents, diseases (e.g. cancer, infection) or war injuries.

 

Congenital Deficiency: People who are congenitally missing arms or hands.

 

Situations Where Other Arm Prostheses Are Insufficient: Situations where mechanical or cosmetic prostheses do not meet the needs.

 

Application Conditions

 

Some important factors should be considered for the application of a bionic arm prosthesis:

 

Medical Condition: The person's general health condition may affect the usability of the prosthesis.

 

Amputation Level: Where the arm is missing affects the choice and applicability of the prosthesis.

 

Rehabilitation: Willingness and ability to participate in rehabilitation programs necessary for the use of the prosthesis.

 

Financial Situation: Bionic prostheses are generally costly and insurance coverage may vary.

 

User Compliance: The user's willingness and ability to accept and live with the prosthesis.

 

Bionic arm prostheses can provide movement similar to the functions of a natural arm, thanks to advanced sensors and motors. These prosthetics can improve the user's quality of life and allow them to perform daily activities more independently.
