Hi List members,
   Is anyone aware if there exists a cervical orthosis that has an
pneumatic cell under the chin rest to the patient could pump it up to
the desired amount of support under the chin? I have a candidate who
can't hold his head up, so he uses his hand so his chin doesn't rest on
his chest.
    (I know such supports exist in wrist splints to open tight fingers)
Thanks,
