Webinar Description: This webinar explores the principles and clinical application of dynamic components used in upper extremity mobilization orthoses, including outriggers such as our Orfitubes, Isoforce, springs and coils that apply controlled, directional force to promote joint motion. Participants will gain knowledge about designing and fabricating dynamic orthoses using these components to address common clinical scenarios such as joint stiffness, contractures and limited range of motion following injury or surgery.
Presented by: Jenna Millman, MS, OTR/L, CHT
Learning Objectives:
Upon completion of this course, participants will:
- Identify the biomechanical principles and clinical indications for incorporating dynamic components into upper extremity orthoses.
- Differentiate between commonly used dynamic components and identify appropriate applications based on patient diagnosis and treatment goals.
- Recognize key design features, force vectors, and adjustment techniques that contribute to effective dynamic orthosis function.
- Provide resources for education in orthotic fabrication and how to obtain materials.
