ABSTRACT:
An external orthesis for motor handicaps of the hand of an upper limb of a human, comprising a para-skeleton for the upper limb and hand. The construction of the orthesis is such that the physiological joints are held under compression and the weight of the handicapped hand is dynamically neutralized. The orthesis is adapted to be operated by operation of the scapular motor to cause manipulation of the various physiological joints. Use of the orthesis speeds recovery of sensitivity and mobility.
