Fits children through to large adults, and is universal for left or right arms.
The MultiLink carries the arm's weight with movements initiated from the shoulder girdle which are then converted into movements of the forearm. Lateral and vertical hinge points can each be adjusted according to the level of movement required to enable precise support for the user's needs.
It helps people with limited arm function to move their arms and hands. MultiLink eliminates gravity and the burden to lift the arm. It also helps with reaching, grabbing and manipulating again during daily activities such as eating, drinking, computer work, communication and play.
People who are challenged by muscular weakness or paralysis, but can still grab objects can use the MultiLink. Most users either have neurological or neuromuscular disorders. Elastic band assisted Elevating Proximal Arm provides clients with shoulder girdle weakness, additional range of movement.
Clients with as little as poor strength in the shoulder can accomplish self-feeding, table top activities and facial hygiene, while increasing or maintaining range of movement and strengthening muscles.
