ACMC - Assessment of Capacity for Myoelectric Control

The ACMC is a standardized, observation-based clinical assessment used to evaluate how effectively a person can control a myoelectric upper limb prosthetic hand during everyday bimanual activities.

The ACMC can be used with children and adults, across prosthetic sides and levels, and in both congenital and acquired upper limb loss.

It is widely used in occupational therapy, prosthetic rehabilitation and research.
