Frog Arm (Exoskeleton Device)

The Frog Arm is an experimental device for people who have some degree of paralysis distal to the elbow. Extending the elbow opens the fingers. This device does nothing to close the fingers, but many hands in paralysis are closed at rest, so they should close again on their own when the user bends the elbow.

The Frog Arm is an experimental device. It may not be effective for your circumstance. If you have any doubts about safety, please do not use the device without the guidance of a medical professional.
