These orthoses may consist of wearable devices that permit a variety of flexion and/or rotation movements to the elbow joint; they include wrappings and flexible supports. Elbow support orthoses are intended to assist the motion of the upper limb after illness, trauma, and/or for muscle-disabled patients.
