Description
MYAID AbleHand Assistive Hand Splint. The AbleHand is an assistive hand splint designed to increase functionality in the upper limb by encouraging the user to perform manual tasks. The opening at both ends of the splint enables use of different daily aid tools e.g. drawing, writing, eating and brushing teeth whilst still retaining a functional hand position. Before the creation of the AbleHand many hand splints just existed to hold the hand in specific positions, either whilst awake or asleep. They hold the hand in a position using either cones that fit in the palm of the hand, or rigid shaped cast type devices that fit around the hand and forearm. A major limitation of this approach is that these devices do not allow the user to fit day to day tools or objects whilst maintaining a therapeutic hand position. The material and unique shape of the device is designed to fit in the palm of the users hand to minimise movement once in situ. With the invention of the AbleHand users of the device are encouraged to be more compliant with their rehabilitation and have better self-management of their condition; as the device helps to promote greater independence in its users. The AbleHand can help with the rehabilitation of decreased function in people with Multiple Sclerosis, Cerebral Palsy, Stroke and Rheumatoid Arthritis. You can view a demonstration video of the AbleHand on the MDTi website, on the AbleHand product page. The pictured implements are for demonstration purposes only and are not supplied with the AbleHand.
