Abstract
In 70% of cases, post-traumatic brachial plexopathy is a consequence of a road traffic accident; the remaining cases are due to sports, industrial, domestic injuries, as well as shrapnel and mine-explosive wounds received during military operations. Even successful microsurgical reconstruction followed by medical therapy and rehabilitation does not guarantee complete recovery, which prompts the search for new ways to restore patients with post-traumatic brachial plexopathy. This work demonstrates the capabilities of a domestic development: the passive exoskeleton of the upper limb "EXAR-34".
