The objectives of this study were analyzing the benefits of using an adopted Gaylord upper-limb sling in 30 hemiplegic patients with shoulder subluxation associated to pain. There were analized improvement in pain; difficult and dependency in dressing; confort and adequacy in use. A markeble improvement in pain was considered when at least 75% of relief was achieved. Results were evaluated 2 months later and in 66,7% there was markeble improvement in pain; in 93,3% they were dependents in dressing; in 83,3% thought to be easy in use, and 100% thought to be confortable. Because of this results it was concluded that the adopted Gaylord upper-limb sling can be used as a orthetic device in hemiplegic patients with shoulder subluxation.
