I have a young, athletic patient with axillary nerve (or C5-6) injury and is unable to use the deltoids. She has good use of pecs, lats, triceps, serratus, and some use of elbow flexors and rotator cuff. Her wrist and hand muscles are strong. Is there anyone with advice regarding bracing to allow functional reaching in the absence of deltoids?
