The "Assessment of Capacity for Myoelectric Control" (ACMC) is an observational assessment developed to assess the ability of a prosthesis user to control a myoelectric prosthetic hand. Each item in the ACMC is an observable prosthetic hand movement, such as timing during grasping, or an observable prosthetic hand movement in relation to other body parts, such as uses the prosthesis over the shoulder...
The ACMC assesses how skillful a prosthesis hand user performs different prosthetic hand movements when performing a bimanual activity and therefore an ACMC assessment is often carried out during the client's performance of an everyday activity. The activity is often selected according to the development and interest of the user and hence, the assessment is suitable for users of different ages, either prosthetic side and different prosthetic levels. Suggestions for activities have been developed for use during ACMC assessments.
