Thanks Justin and Bart for a great demonstration of the Dynamic Arm Support! Check it out!
If you work with clients affected by a stroke, grab a tea 🍵 and sit for 5 minutes 🕐 In working with wheelchair users for nearly a decade, I very rarely see an arm trough used effectively. For clients who are post stroke, I often use a half or full padded tray. This can be swung out the way for transfers and ensures the client's arm is supported, no matter how rotated their shoulder may be. But 🍑 Thanks to some clever people at Bodypoint, there is a new way to support this posture. What is it? The Bodypoint, Inc. Dynamic Arm Support (As always, not a paid promotion - just a good product to share) Why do users need this? Reduces the risk for long-term upper extremity dysfunction (prevents contractures, shoulder pain, and shoulder subluxation) How? It offers modular and adjustable support. Any arm, any angle that needs to be accommodated. It has 3 contact points (elbow, forearm, hand) and allows 60° of dynamic movement that encourages strength and proprioception. The flexible hand block promotes a natural resting position and allows the fingers to flex. For more details, visit Permobil's Bodypoint Dynamic Arm website. Big thanks to BART VAN DER HEYDEN, PT for taking the time to share his experiences in developing the product #OccupationalTherapy #AssistiveTechnology #Wheelchairs #Seating #Education #OTstudent #PhysicalTherapy #Physiotherapy #CRT #OccupationalTherapist #PhysicalTherapist #Stroke #WheelchairPrescription
