Description
ADJUSTABLE TRIPOD
Description
An aid handled by an arm suitable for supporting and/or assisting the mobility of people with walking difficulties.
Quadripod wide base with closed non-slip handle, anatomical grip. Made entirely of lightweight painted aluminum. Non-slip tips in soft rubber. Handle in biocompatible polypropylene. Adjustable in height from 74 to 96 cm.
How to use
Hold the device with the hand opposite the weak leg and with the longest side of the support base facing inwards. Bring the device forward together with the foot of the weak leg, placing all the weight on the stronger leg. When walking, be careful not to place the device too close to the body to avoid tripping over one of the tips, nor too far away to avoid losing balance. If using on stairs, check that the step is large enough to accommodate the base of the aid. Afterwards, the person must first lift the stronger leg, then the device, and finally the weaker leg. To go down the stairs, the affected leg must move forward with the device and finally the healthy leg. If necessary, get help from an assistant.
