I have a SCI patient that needs a brace to off load the elbow. He keeps
getting a busae sac and needs something to protect and reduce pressure on
the area. He use his left elbow for propping himself up since his right arm
has deficits. Right now he uses a thick cushion which helps. The Dr. would
like a device to relieve the pressure, but not restrict motion.
If anyone has made a brace for this type of situation I would appreciate
any design input. Thank you.
