Frequently asked questions
Answers, clearly explained.
Everything about our devices, fitting through Cure Care, training and support.
Getting a prosthesis
Can I get fitted directly at Cure Bionics?
No. Cure Bionics designs and manufactures the devices, but we do not fit patients ourselves. All fittings happen through our Cure Care clinics, currently in Sousse and Tunis, where our clinical team handles your consultation, 3D scan, socket design, fitting and aftercare. You can book a free consultation to get started.
What does the fitting journey look like?
It takes five steps at a Cure Care clinic: a free consultation, a 3D scan and clinical evaluation, 3D modeling of your socket, 3D printing of the socket, then custom fitting, delivery and aftercare.
Which setup is right for my level of amputation?
It depends on your level and your goals. For below elbow, we offer myoelectric, sport and cosmetic setups. For above elbow, electronic or mechanical setups. For below and above knee, everyday mobility setups with the Hasdrubal foot and knee. Try our guided finder to see the recommended configuration for you.
How much does a prosthesis cost?
Pricing depends on your level of amputation, the configuration you choose and your reimbursement coverage. We don't publish prices: your Cure Care clinician will give you a clear quote during your free consultation.
Our products
What is the Hannibal Myoelectric Hand?
Our flagship motorized hand. It offers open and close grips, multiple user modes, haptic feedback, a rotative wrist and high autonomy (500 to 4000 cycles). It weighs around 600 g, closes in 1 second with 100 N of grip strength, and includes a Freeze mode that locks the hand in place. It is CE certified.
Explore Hannibal HandHow do I control the Hannibal Hand?
With your muscles. The MyoS sensor, a 3-electrode EMG sensor, reads your muscle signals and translates them into hand movements. You can train and calibrate through the MyoSense app, and our team can configure your hand remotely from a smartphone.
Explore MyoSWhat is the difference between the electronic and mechanical elbows?
The Hannibal Electronic Elbow is motorized, with two degrees of freedom (135° forward, 90° lateral), a payload up to 4 kg, and works exclusively with the Hannibal Myoelectric Hand. The Hannibal Mechanical Elbow is manually operated, lighter (around 550 g), with 120° forward rotation, and works with both the Hannibal and Angel hands.
Do you offer lower limb prosthetics?
Yes. The Hasdrubal range covers lower limb mobility: a polycentric knee for adults (120° flexion, up to 100 kg) and an articulated foot for adults and children (sizes 22 to 30 cm, activity level K1).
Explore Hasdrubal productsWhat if I want a natural look rather than a motorized hand?
The Angel Cosmetic Hand is made with biocompatible, realistic silicone with bendable fingers, a soft natural touch and a customizable skin color. It pairs with the Hannibal Mechanical Elbow.
Explore Angel HandCan I use my prosthesis for sport and hobbies?
Yes. Flow Passive Terminal Tools are a modular set of interchangeable terminals with a quick-attach system, designed for sport, activities and hobbies.
Explore FlowTraining and support
How do I learn to use my myoelectric hand?
Through the MyoSense app and MyoLink device. MyoSense lets you visualize your muscle signals, play games that stimulate muscle response and practice virtual prosthetic control on Android smartphones, tablets, TVs and boxes. MyoLink reads your muscle signal quality and connects to the app for rehab, training and configuration.
Explore MyoSenseCan my clinician adjust my hand remotely?
Yes. The Hannibal Hand supports remote configuration: calibration and customization from a smartphone, with remote support, interactive muscle training and real-time technical help through the Cure Fit platform.
How is the device powered and charged?
The MyoPower system is integrated into the prosthesis, with an LED battery display, magnetic charging and one-touch on and off, so you can see your power level throughout the day and recharge easily.
Are your products certified?
The Hannibal Myoelectric Hand and both Hannibal elbows are CE certified. All our products are designed and manufactured in Tunisia.
Reimbursement and clinics
Is my prosthesis covered by insurance or CNAM?
Coverage depends on your situation and your fund. We prepared a reimbursement guide and a CNAM reimbursement document you can request from our download files page. Your Cure Care clinician will also help you with the paperwork.
Where are the Cure Care clinics?
We have two clinics: Cure Care Sousse and Cure Care Tunis. Both offer upper and lower limb prosthetics, sockets and silicone, and rehabilitation and training.
