I'd like your input re. the wisdom of using a cosmetic glove other than the
standard Otto Bock PVC glove for a patient with a myoelectric hand. She's
getting the glove permanently stained very quickly due to exposure to ink
and dyes.
When using the Centri silicone gloves several years ago, I had to reinforce
the thumb and finger tips with a clear silicone cement to make them last for
more than a few weeks.
Has anyone found a better solution than this?
