Teorema Project BUCKLES CLOTHING
Good eye-hand coordination is required to insert the buckle. To tension the parts once inserted, a sub termino-lateral grip is used.
The palm face of the thumb’s pulp rests on the outer face of the first phalanx on the index finger. The muscles that stabilise the grip are the first dorsal interosseous, that acts on the index finger, the short flexor, the first palm interosseous and abductor of the thumb.This aid has a clip belt buckle on the one side that can be altered in length, and an end complete with zip that can be opened.
The clip belt buckle also requires good coordination and significant force has to be applied by the thumb, opposing the index finger to clip the fixing device in place.

Teorema Project CLIPS AND BUTTONS CLOTHING
As regards the aid with the four press studs, significant pressure force is required from the tip of the first finger. The Trapeziometacarpal joint must be kept in the most suitable position between the bone ends, by the action of the intrinsic muscles that contract to stabilise the joint.
The aim is to reduce radial dislocation of the metacarpal while applying force with the thumb, because this is a cause of pain for rhizoid arthritis pathologies.
As regards the task of doing up buttons, greater precision and independence of action by each finger is essential.
The thumb uses the pulp part to oppose the index and middle fingers, to tilt the button and push it into the button hole. Incorrect terminal opposition makes this task impossible, due to the shape of the object.The aid comprises 4 press studs on the one side and 4 buttons like those found on many items of clothing on the other side.

Teorema Project BASKET DOMESTIC ACTIVITIES
The purpose is to practice passing objects through a certain gap upwards and downwards, or sideways (from right to left, or left to right), as well as to try hooking up everyday objects on the edge.
It is ideal when used in combination with the structure AR10004 ERGO 400 to perform exercises at different heights. It can also be used to pass different balls through the hole.

Teorema Project HANDLES DOMESTIC ACTIVITIES
Made up of a window handle (180° rotation about a central pin) and door handle (90° rotation about a pin to one side).
Depending on how the aid is positioned on the wall panel, the latter can be used with the right or left hand.

Teorema Project ELASTIC SLALOM DOMESTIC ACTIVITIES
This aid is made to allow patients to exercise using “slalom” tasks between the pegs, following a sequence determined by the therapist on each occasion.
Precision and coordination of movements is required to keep the elastic cord taut and to guide it during the exercise. The ring facilitates holding it.
The unit has 5 plastic pegs.
One of these is used to hold the end of the elastic to be “guided” as indicated by the therapist.

Teorema Project CUPS FOOD
In gripping the cup the weight of the object is used because the circumference is supported by the grip formed by the thumb and middle finger, and a hook made up of the index finger. This grip requires excellent thumb and middle finger stability, as well as the integrity of the deep flexor on the index finger and abductor on the thumb, which is essential for this task.
To grip the cup it is important to have good skill in using flexing/extending muscles of both the hand and the rest of the upper limb in a harmonious manner, for the reaching and subsequent gripping phases.
You can also work on the patient’s capacity to open their hand to grip/release the cup at various heights.
Common disposable plastic cups can be inserted.

Teorema Project HANGER MANIPULATION SKILLS
This aid enables to perform actions like hooking and sliding items with different grips on a bar.
The basic kit has two “goose bill” hooks with through-hole, a ring and a disc. In particular, it enables to practise and simulate placing paper rolls (the bar can be removed and replaced multiple times), as well as simulate a coat hanger with the addition of hooks that can also slide along as it would happen with curtains.

Teorema Project CLIMBY MANIPULATION SKILLS
This innovative aid makes it possible to adjust the metal structure tilt. It helps improve coordination when using both upper limbs by gradually mobilising the shoulder, elbow and wrists while keeping hold of the bar with the hands. It can also be used by individuals with serious lack of strength and resistance. Using the bar, one limb helps the other. This exercise aid is a favourite among people with spasticity or hypotonicity, periarthritis, shoulder arthrosis or hemiparesis.
