The ElectroHand 200
The ElectroHand 200 is the latest development in myoelectric prosthetic systems for pediatric patients. This prosthetic caters to children's (1 and a half to 13 years) needs and desires, from the wide variety of model colors to the flashing LED lights that identify the amount of battery power it has. This hand prosthetic is no simply a smaller version of adult prosthetics. In the past, the power source for this device was a problem. The 12V battery pack was quite large and was worn or attached to the patient's waist or in a chest pouch which led to further possible complications such as wire breakage. Now, the upgraded 2000 model consumes less power due to the use of microprocessors and only requires a 4.8V battery which resides within the device. The ElectroHand 2000 is a completely new development designed exclusively for children which brings the prosthetic world one step closer to providing every unique child with the tools necessary to participate in life to the best of their ability,
