Brachial Plexus Injury

Brachial Plexus Injury

I have been present with a 26yr old female with a Brachial Plexus Injury. She active elbow extension of her elbow and wrist motion.
  When her elbow is flexed at 90 degrees she has functional wrist flexion and extension.
  If a dynamic elbow orthosis is used for flexion, she might benefit from an orthosis which provides this motion.
   
  I am curious to know what options are available.
  What would you do if presented with this case?
   
  I am looking at a fairly new Ultraflex product used for Biceps Tendon Repair Model EO CF
  Does anyone have any experience with this product?
   
  Thanks for your Help
