Hand orthosis as a writing aid in writer's cramp.

N Taş1, G K Karataş, V Sepici.   

Abstract

Writer's cramp is a focal, task-specific dystonia of the hand and wrist. It primarily affects people who do a significant amount of writing, and causes difficulties in writing. We present five cases with writer's cramp who showed improvement in their writing ability with an applied hand orthosis. Copyright 2001 Movement Disorder Society.
