COMPLETE CONTROL SYSTEM GEN2

•
Control is not position-based. Example: if a hand is commanded to close (and it does) and the user then
wishes to turn the wrist, there’s no need to “hold” the hand closed while rotating the wrist, as each motion
is a separate activity.
•
If control becomes erratic, reflect on the “feeling” of the motions when calibrated. The system does not
forget the patterns it was calibrated with, so it can always be helpful to return to those perceptions when
needed.
Successful Use of Pattern Recognition Control Relies on Two Priorities:
1.
Placing electrodes at locations that make reliable contact with the skin.
2.
Good understanding of pattern recognition calibration by the user and the practitioner.
INDICATIONS FOR USE
The
Complete Control
System Gen2 is to be used exclusively for external prosthetic fittings of the upper limb.
CONTRAINDICATIONS
None known.
LIMITATIONS
Careful evaluation is required to determine if individuals with brachial plexopathy or high-level amputations
without targeted muscle reinnervation surgery could benefit from the COMLETE CONTROL System Gen2.
DESCRIPTION OF THE DEVICE
The
Complete Control
System Gen2 is a packaged electronic control system used in conjunction with an
upper-limb prosthetic device. The
Complete Control
System Gen2 has been validated for a specific set of
prosthetic elbow, wrist, and hand components (see Compatible Devices section). The
Complete Control
System Gen2 is a module for processing EMG and computing pattern recognition algorithms (
Complete
Controller
) permanently connected to a user-interface calibration interface button (
Complete Calibrate
button) and connected to the prosthesis and muscle signal inputs by connectable interface cables.
The
Complete Control
System Gen2 contains the following components:
1.
Complete Controller
main processor with a connected
Complete Calibrate
button
2.
Device Interface Cable (clinician-specified termination type)
3.
EMG Interface Cable (clinician-specified termination type)
