I do wonder how you get the glove on over spastic fingers by yourself.

Charlotte, NC, July 08, 2017 --(PR.com)--
Saebo, Inc., a medical device company specializing in affordable and
novel clinical solutions designed to improve mobility and function,
announced on Thursday a new patent awarded for the SaeboGlove, a hand
rehabilitation product launched in the Summer of 2016 that has since
gained international attention as one of the most effective and
comfortable hand solutions on the market.
The SaeboGlove is
designed to help patients suffering from neurological and orthopedic
injuries incorporate their hand functionally during therapy and at home.
Its proprietary tension system extends the fingers and thumb after
grasping an object. The SaeboGlove is lightweight, low-profile, and
features a secure, spiral forearm design and a non-slip silicon liner
and fingertips to improve traction and maintain proper alignment. The
device is based on the latest advances in neurorehabilitation research
documenting the brain’s ability to “re-program” itself through mass
practice, task-oriented arm training.
Saebo developed the
SaeboGlove after many years of success with their flagship product, the
SaeboFlex, another hand recovery device designed to assist in extension
of the fingers. The SaeboFlex is a higher-profile device made from
durable rigid parts used to support and assist individuals with
increased spasticity. The new SaeboGlove device offers a lower profile
version, designed specifically for clients that exhibit mild tone or
less. Many patients often “graduate” to the SaeboGlove after several
months with the SaeboFlex.
“The research is clear that clients
with limited hand function do not use their affected arm enough
throughout the day,” states Saebo co-founder Henry Hoffman. “This lack
of use curbs further progress and sets the clients on a path for a
plateau in their recovery. In the past, Saebo was able to address this
concern by offering the SaeboFlex which allows moderately to severely
impaired clients to use their hand for grasp and release tasks and
exercises. With the addition of the SaeboGlove for mildly affected
clients, we now have 2 options available for stroke hand recovery."
“Saebo's
mission is to provide affordable and accessible break-through home
recovery products that will assist with mobility and function. For under
$300 USD, many clients will now have the ability to not only use their
hand functionally, but reverse the impairment. No other hand stroke
technology for that price exists on the market today."
The
SaeboGlove has been used by thousands of patients around the world, and
is recommended by therapists for anyone who experiences hand weakness
following a neurological or orthopedic injury. The SaeboGlove is
available in multiple sizes, can be ordered online, directly from the
Saebo website, and does not require a prescription from a doctor;
however, it is recommended that the patient consult with a licensed
therapist before ordering the device.
