Elbow Crutches – Rehaid

Rehaid Elbow Crutches

An Elbow Crutch (also called Fore-arm Crutch) helps to transfer load from the legs to the upper body.

Description

General Details

elbow-crutches-1This is useful for people who cannot use their legs to fully support the weight of their body, due to temporary or permanent disabilities. The patient stands erect and adjusts the height such that the grip is at the level of the wrist. The patient then inserts the hand through the cuff and holds the grip. The opening in the front allows the hand to slip out in case of a fall.
