Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the motor imagery ability in transradial amputees using myoelectric prosthesis compare it with the control group and investigate its effect on functionality
Detailed Description:
In the sensory and motor homunculus the upper extremity especially the hand areas cover a larger area Morphological changes occur in the body in amputees due to upper extremity amputation In addition neural restructuring occurs due to the lack of sensory input and visual feedback These neurophysiological changes experienced in amputees affect the cortical areas of the brain This situation can also negatively affect motor imagery ability For this reason upper extremity prosthesis systems with different control mechanisms have been developed In one of the developed systems myoelectric prostheses since the signals received with electrodes due to muscle contraction provide sensory input to amputees known that it increases synaptic sprouting in the brain and improves motor imagery ability There are studies that use motor imagery in stroke spinal cord injury Parkinsons disease postoperative anterior cruciate ligament injuries cervical and lumbar region pain problems In addition it focused on motor imagery after amputation and emphasized that the evidence on whether motor imagery ability is impaired in amputees is not sufficient In a study it was found that the use of upper extremity prosthesis increases the hand mental rotation ability and this situation is related to the body integrity of amputees with the use of prosthesis After investigatorsexamination and screening to the best of investigators knowledge no study was found that evaluated the motor imagery ability of transradial amputees using myoelectric controlled prosthesis and examined its effect on functionality Therefore the aim of investigators study is to evaluate the motor imagery ability in transradial amputees using myoelectric prosthesis compare it with the control group and investigate its effect on functionality Transradial amputees using myoelectric prosthesis and the control group healthy individuals between the ages of 18-60 will be included in the study Demographic information of all participants to be included in the study will be recorded with the Case Assessment Form Standardized Mini Mental Test SMMT to evaluate the cognitive status of individuals Beck Depression Inventory BDI to evaluate depression symptoms Movement Imagery Questionnaire-3 to evaluate motor imagery ability Mental Chronometry Test MKT measuring motor imagery time Orientate mobile application to evaluate hand mental rotation task performance Box and Block Test to evaluate gross motor hand skills and functionality Jebsen Taylor Hand Function Test JTEFT to measure upper extremity functionsDisabilities of the Arm Shoulder and Hand DASH for upper extremity functional assessment Modified Functional Reach Test MFUT to measure dynamic balance of the trunk and Joint Position Sense measurement to evaluate proprioceptive sense will be used All data will be evaluated by statistical analysis methods
