Summary

The objective of the device feasibility study will be to validate the user needs of the Point Digit system. This study will be a single group intervention model where one group of 5 partial hand amputees will be asked to perform several tasks. Successful completion of a task results in a fulfilled user need. Failure to complete a task results in an unfulfilled user need.
