Limits chronic shoulder subluxation/dislocation. Holds the humerus in position and prevents stretching of the tendons and ligaments due to poor muscle tone in the shoulder area following CVA, ligamentous rupture or peripheral nerve injury. Maintains proper position of the shoulder joint when musculature is not functioning properly. Scapular components diffuse weight of arm across shoulder girdle to minimize discomfort. Modular flexible scapular and humeral components are interchangeable for varying patient shapes and sizes. The plastic components are padded and do not touch the skin.
