The problem with Walkers

Current walker training methods aren't working.

In an article published by Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, it was found that despite the benefits, habitually poor walker use, as marked by excessive weight on the walker handles and/or excessive distance between the user and the walker, can lead to muscle atrophy, poor posture, and falls. A later study published in Geriatrics and Gerontology International showed that over 87% of severe falls with an assistive device occurred with a walker. They recommended increased time devoted to fitting and education on proper use."

Occasionally retraining patients on walker use doesn't instill safe habits
Increased re-admittance rates frustrate patients and their family
Time on retraining patients distracts from your Plan of Care

StrideTech Go's Technology
