Decoding Motion: Pattern Recognition in Practice
A three-part webinar series exploring how pattern recognition is transforming upper limb prosthetic care.
Hosted by Hanger and featuring experts from COAPT, Fillauer, O&P Insight, and Hanger Clinic, the series brings together leaders in myoelectric pattern recognition, clinical documentation, and evidence-based rehabilitation to share practical insights and innovations.
Session 1 – From Code to Care: Expanding Access to Pattern Recognition in Upper Limb Prosthetics
Date and Time: July 30, 12-1pm CT
Attendees will gain insights into the clinical benefits of pattern recognition, complexities of the L6700 code, and practical strategies for securing reimbursement. Presenters will discuss how standardized processes and best practices can streamline approvals, helping patients receive the support they need while empowering healthcare providers to navigate the evolving reimbursement system with confidence.
Session 2 – Foundations of Pattern Recognition: Principles, Evidence, and Patient Candidacy
Date and Time: August 27, 12-1pm CT
This session delves into the transformative potential of pattern recognition technology in myoelectric prostheses, redefining who can benefit from these innovative solutions. By incorporating an Intent Decoding Mechanism (IDM), pattern recognition enables direct, intuitive control of multiple grip patterns—allowing users to effortlessly perform activities of daily living by decoding their specific movement intentions. This enhances functionality, independence, and overall quality of life for individuals using myoelectric prostheses.
Session 3 – Empowering Function: Integrating Pattern Recognition into Upper Limb Rehab
Date and Time: September 30, 12-1 pm CT
This course introduces therapists to emerging care strategies for individuals following upper limb amputation, with a focus on integrating pattern recognition technology into rehabilitation. As an innovative control method for myoelectric prostheses, pattern recognition enhances intuitive, functional use—empowering patients to achieve greater independence.
