TY - CHAP M1 - Book, Section TI - Upper Limb A1 - Ahern, Gerard A1 - Brygel, Maurice Y1 - 2014 N1 - T2 - Exploring Essential Surgery AB - The human upper limb is structured for manipulation of objects in three dimensions. The limb allows for various grasping mechanisms (precision, power, pinch) in distal regions to be combined with spatial movements by the proximal regions. Objects are sensed, held and analyzed or used. They can also be brought to a secondary area (usually the face) for further analysis or use.
