A stabilizing shoulder orthosis can also be used in neurological conditions such as a stroke. This group includes orthoses (bandages) for tennis elbow (also known as epicondylitis), shoulder support, shoulder lock, shoulder orthoses in hemiplegia after a stroke, arm slings with different degrees of stabilization, humerus orthoses in the treatment of shaft fractures on the upper arm.
