talking about different ways to keep a stroke patient's hand on the fww at the end of the course. in agreeance about using a givmohr sling with a fww, however, i do like to use a shoulder subluxation brace with the rolyan walker splint or use a platform or icu walker to provide the approximation or proprioceptive feedback.
