Upper limb amputation may be a result of surgery, trauma, disease, or due to a congenital manifestation. Regardless of its cause, losing hands is the most devastating situation because we use them everyday. Experiencing such long-term disability can affect mental, emotional and social well being of an individual. Upon addressing this issue, millions of money have been poured in developing artificial substitution devices, from simple traditional cosmetic prostheses that are body-powered and cable-driven systems to highly complex electromechanical devices in research laboratories known as bionic arms. The realisation for prosthetic devices was after World War II due to large number of imputed soldiers returning home. The US Navy Bureau of Medicine and Surgery and the US Army Surgeon General initialised a national treatment program of artificial limbs prostheses replacement. In a research article by Clement, 2011 men are 67% highly probable of loosing their hands. It further states that, this commonly happens during the productive working years at 60% chance between ages of sixteen to fiftyfour. Botswana Demographic Survey Report for 2017 illustrates that there are 9, 520 persons with arm impairment. The majority of these impairments mostly occur at industrial workplaces, recreational activities like sports, and day to day automobile accidents. In this study, the clinical importance of existing prosthetic devices is investigated. The prosthetic devices are reviewed in contrast with the unique problems faced by users on the service or product delivery, maintenance and practical implications of the devices are assessed. We found out that users have reported social issues, dissatisfaction, and discomfort more especially in old traditional devices. They Kind them unsuitable for showing affection because of their unusual shape and feel.And they go well with certain clothing styles.
