Proximal upper extremity weakness may develop secondary to central cord syndrome due to spinal cord injury or brachial plexus injury. Functional deficits, pain, decreased upper extremity arm swing during gait, and shoulder subluxation are common sequelea of these injuries. Benefits from use of this orthosis may include improved arm swing and balance during ambulation, reduced shoulder pain and subluxation, and increased independence for tasks such as carrying lightweight objects, lower extremity dressing, bathing, light homemaking and leisure activities such as gardening.
