Electricity

Product Code: AR10016

To activate the switch, the finger must be positioned on the correct half of the button. This task can also be done using two fingers.  To do a rhythmic alternating movement, selectivity is required in  calling on the two fingers to flex in succession.

Inserting a plug in a socket is a task that calls for attention,  coordination and evaluation of the force to do so safely. The patient must grip the two elements firmly in their hands and  connect them to one another.

    Flexo Extension

    Product Code: AR10012

    The patient puts their forearm into a support that holds it in place. The fingers are connected to the elastics by means of fixings put over the fingers like rings.

    A sliding adjustable system makes it possible to keep the optimum 90° angle between the phalanxes and the elastics. The tension in the elastics keeps the fingers’ flexing muscles extended, changing the passive rigidity over time. Exercises can be done with concentric, eccentric and isometric contractions by the flexing muscles.

    The supports are chromed metal, while the finger inserts are atoxic imitation leather, and both the length and resistance can be adjusted in each individual finger elastic.

    Vertical Spiral

    Product Code: AR10009

    An instrument similar to the horizontal spiral, but different in that this exercise calls for greater involvement of the upper limb.

    In addition to prone-supine positioning movements of the forearm on must, in fact, use arm movements that must guide the hand in the twisting movements. The aim of the task is to exercise the upper limb in a complex movement that calls for a good level of skill and fluid movements.

    Prone Supination

    Product Code: AR10014

    Positioned on a table: This aid is used to invite and guide the patient through prone supination tasks with their forearm. Two knobs below the equipment are used to position it correctly for the patient.  The proximal support on which the forearm is placed must be adjusted to a height that keeps the shoulder in a comfortable, neutral position.

    By raising and lowering the adjustment element with the elbow flexed, the position is changed to extra/intra rotation of the upper limb respectively. The knob nearest to the handle is used to adjust it to the correct tilt on the prone supination plane, while the upper knob is used to adjust a system that is able to provide resistance to the movement by the patient, which can be varied in intensity. The patient is therefore asked to overcome the resistance offered by the aid, and the extent of that resistance is determined by the therapist in relation to the therapeutic goal.

    Latches

    Product Code: AR10015

    A “sliding” latch (element on the left in the photo): due to this instrument’s size, the patient has to have a fine grip using the first three fingers. Also they must associate a small movement in the vertical plane to free the latch and move it along the horizontal plane. The patient can also be asked to do this task without using the visual channel, which means that they must rely on tactile-kinaesthetic information.

    A “turning” handle (shown on the right in the photo): in this case the grip involves control with the thumb and side of the second finger. A supination and pronation rotating force is required to turn the handle.

    Handles

    Product Code: AR10017

    Made up of a window handle (180° rotation about a central pin) and door handle (90° rotation about a pin to one side).

    Depending on how the aid is positioned on the wall panel, the latter can be used with the right or left hand.

    Tightening Cylinders

    Product Code: AR10024

    The tightening / loosening action involves a three-finger grip in which the thumb is positioned to the side, while the phalanx on the middle finger opposes the index finger.  The role of counterposing the middle finger to the thumb is reinforced by the support that the third finger gets from the fourth and fifth fingers.

    The three different head diameters provide for increasing the complexity of the task. The entire support is made of anti-bacterial polyethylene that is water and UV ray resistant and easy to sterilise.  It has 3 head diameters for varying levels of difficulty in gripping for the hand – wrist. The “heads”, made of polyethylene like the support, can simulate the caps on food jars, a light bulb, gas tap, etc.

    Elastic Slalom

    Product Code: AR10023

    This aid is made to allow patients to exercise using “slalom” tasks between the pegs, following a sequence determined by the therapist on each occasion.  Precision and coordination of movements is required to keep the elastic cord taut and to guide it during the exercise. The ring facilitates holding it.

    The unit has 5 plastic pegs.  One of these is used to hold the end of the elastic to be “guided” as indicated by the therapist.

    Cups

    Product Code: AR10018

    In gripping the cup the weight of the object is used because the circumference is supported by the grip formed by the thumb and middle finger, and a hook made up of the index finger. This grip requires excellent thumb and middle finger stability, as well as the integrity of the deep flexor on the index finger and abductor on the thumb, which is essential for this task.

    To grip the cup it is important to have good skill in using flexing/ extending muscles of both the hand and the rest of the upper limb in a harmonious manner, for the reaching and subsequent gripping phases.  You can also work on the patient’s capacity to open their hand to grip / release the cup at various heights.  Common disposable plastic cups can be inserted.
