I have been asked to fabricate bilateral elbow stretching orthoses for a six-month-old baby with Arthrogryposis. The physician is adamant about using worm gear joints. I work with these joints often on the CAMP Club-Ax brace, but they will not part with the joints unless you buy the whole brace. I have not been able to come up with a supplier for this joint elsewhere, does anyone know where I can find such a joint in an infant size??? Any help would be appreciated.
