  • Page 8: Overview

    The Evaluation Kit permits virtual practice and training for pattern recognition myoelectric control. PURPOSE The Coapt Evaluation Kit is intended to be used for the planning and/or practice phases of an upper limb myoelectric prosthesis fitting with two main purposes: 1.
  • Page 9: Pattern Recognition Introduction

    This is where pattern recognition goes to work. The complex sets of myoelectric patterns need to be “decoded” in real time and matched to their arm or hand action. Coapt’s pattern recognition is a system of finely tuned machine learning algorithms that does just that. Specifically, for the residual muscle signals of those with upper limb loss or difference.
  • Page 10: What Is Key To Making Pattern Recognition Function At Its Best

    2. Good understanding of pattern recognition calibration by the user and the practitioner. INDICATIONS FOR USE The Coapt Evaluation Kit is an accessory tool intended to be used during the planning and alignment of myoelectric control contact locations for an upper limb prosthetic socket.
  • Page 11: Conditions For Use

    Evaluation Kit can aid in determining this. IN THE KIT The Coapt Evaluation kit is to be used in conjunction with a Coapt EMG Interface Cable (sold separately) and the Coapt Complete ControlRoom Gen2 user interface application. The Coapt Evaluation Kit contains the following components: 1.
  • Page 12: Accessories

    When purchasing an Evaluation Kit, the EMG Interface Cable(s) are not included and must be ordered separately. The Evaluation Kit is only compatible with Coapt EMG Interface Cable types shown in the table below. Please contact a Coapt representative with any questions about EMG Interface Cable types and uses.
  • Page 13: Electrodes

    Coapt Dome Electrodes. Contact a Coapt representative to purchase these separately. Where the Evaluation Kit is used with a Snap Style EMG Interface Cable, Coapt recommends the use of FDA cleared, Temporary Evaluation Electrode “Stickers”. Contact a Coapt representative to purchase these separately.

    1. Determining where there is underlying muscle tissue on the residual limb of your user. 2. Planning the Coapt electrode contacts to reliably cover those areas of residual muscle activity. H A N D B O O K ( V 3 . 2 )
  • Page 15: Step 1: Have A Thorough Discovery Chat With Your User

    Step 1: Have a thorough discovery chat with your user Before you dive into any palpation for muscle activity with a prospective user, plan to have a thorough discussion with them about what they can feel and do with their limb. Forget instructing them to imagine isolating wrist flexion and extension or simple elbow up/down (we know—it can be hard to change old habits) but instead, have them tell you ALL of what their fingers, hand, wrist, elbow, etc.
  • Page 16 A HELPFUL APPROACH TO LEADING THIS DISCUSSION: • Ask questions to determine what movements the user can perceive and produce with their phantom limb, such as: o “Can you feel your hand? Which fingers do you feel you can move?” o “Can you imagine making a fist? What about opening your hand with your fingers spread apart?”...
  • Page 17: Step 2: Determine Where There Is Underlying Muscle Tissue On The Residual Limb

    Step 2: Determine where there is underlying muscle tissue on the residual limb Palpation isn’t what it used to be. For single- or dual-site, conventional myoelectric control electrode planning, you may have been used to feeling for strong, isolated contractions using your fingertips. Forget that. For pattern recognition go all in.
  • Page 18 A HELPFUL APPROACH TO PERFORMING THIS PALPATION: • Perform this exercise in a relaxed environment • Take time with this process. • Be patient and listen. • Grasp and cover as much of the user’s limb as possible; do not use only your fingertips to feel.
  • Page 19: Placing And Connecting Coapt Electrode Contacts

    (17 electrode contact points in total). • In some space-constrained fittings, the 17 Coapt Dome Electrodes can be reduced to as few as 9, by way of contact-sharing (see below for details). Contact sharing is not possible when using the Temporary Evaluation Electrode “Stickers”...
  • Page 20 Areas with active EMG during positional loading (e.g. deltoids, brachioradialis). The Evaluation Kit connects to a Coapt EMG Interface Cable to evaluate eight EMG signal channels. To make up a single EMG channel, a pair of passive electrode contacts work together and pick up an oval-shaped area of muscle signal underlying these two contacts.
  • Page 21 EMG channel (same color) on the same Dome Electrode—that will result in zero signal for that channel and not be helpful for pattern recognition. Also very important: All Coapt Conductor wires must be connected to a Dome Electrode contact; do not leave any unconnected. Contact sharing is not possible when using the Temporary Evaluation Electrode “Stickers”...

  • Page 23: Powering On

    The Evaluation Kit will operate for approximately 6 hours from a full charge. CONNECTING AN EMG INTERFACE CABLE The Coapt Evaluation Kit will need to be connected to a compatible EMG Interface Cable (see Accessories section) for proper operation. All EMG Interface Cable types have the same mating connector for attaching to the Evaluation Kit.

  • Page 27: Calibration Adaptation: Adaptive Advance

    CALIBRATION: ADDITIONAL TOOLS Calibration Clearing/Resetting Sometimes you may want or need to erase/reset the calibration control memory of your Coapt system. This can be helpful if there has been an electrode location change or simply if reliable control has become unstable. To help with this, there are a few convenient ways to reset all calibrated motions or to reset one motion at a time.
  • Page 28: Calibration Undo's

    This is not a big deal—and no reason to let that affect your control in a bad way. At any time, the Coapt system lets you “Undo” your last (most recent) calibration activity, whether that was a single motion ‘Add Data’...

    On the Evaluation Kit, you will have access to the Coapt Complete Calibrate button. This oval unit has one pressable button, a Coapt logo, a multi-colored LED, and it can make a series of tones for you to hear. This reference section helps you with what all those colors and sounds mean.
  • Page 33 Critical Error Solid Critical Error. Not to worry, this usually means the Coapt system had to put itself in a protective state because of something else going on with the system. This can usually be overcome with a quick chat with your prosthetist or Coapt, and you probably don’t even need to take the system off.
