support<BR></FONT><BR><SPAN class=539284919-22012007><FONT face=Arial size=2>We
are looking for a wheelchair-mountable arm support for a student that could
<U>damper</U> their spasticity and assist them in controlling random movements
while still allowing him the range of motion within a specifiable 3-D area to
permit him to type on a keyboard and use his Dynavox. The student currently uses
a splint that requires additional support. The splint can be fitted with various
balls to hold either a stylus or writing/art implements. He isn't currently
independent in using his splint & requires someone to hold the splint to
damper the spasticity/random movements. </FONT></SPAN></DIV>
