summary
Some people are paralyzed or amputated because of serious damage, and they lose the ability to walk, so they need some appliances to help them carry out their daily actions. Now let's popularize the science for you. Is paraplegic Walker expensive.
What is paraplegic walker? Is it expensive
First, the walking aids represented by Argo have achieved good results in clinic. The walking device takes the metal half ring of the hip and sacral part as the lever fulcrum and the belt of the chest and back as the force point. When the patient's body center of gravity is placed on one lower limb and the contralateral upper limb is supported to make the contralateral lower limb off the ground, the patient raises his chest and extends his hip, and applies the force on the back strap, the contralateral lower limb steps forward, and the force of forward step is transmitted to the contralateral lower limb through the steel cable. At this time, the crutch is moved forward to make the body center of gravity move forward and turn to the contralateral lower limb, and the above action is repeated to take another step.
Second, the application of functional electrical stimulation of small electronic walking aids provides an effective means for functional reconstruction and training of muscle paralysis caused by central nervous system damage. It can not only assist walking, but also be used for treatment. But it is mainly suitable for patients with incomplete paralysis.
Third: paraplegic walker can help patients with spinal cord injury for practical walking, which is characterized by fast walking speed, less energy consumption, safety and stability, and easy to be accepted by patients. It can not only provide stable support for paraplegia patients, but also transfer the body center of gravity of the remaining body and upper limb function, so that they can regain the function of standing and walking.
matters needing attention
There are many types of paraplegic walkers, and the prices of each one are different. If the economic ability allows, you can choose a better quality to use, but I still hope that you paraplegic patients can have a good treatment.
