Crutch Gait Training: Physical Therapy Assistant Skills Video #1 

Thank you for posting this. Very helpful!

Thank you for the educative video

Was that really 3 point non-weight bearing? Is it not supposed to be the crutch on the injured side (non weight bearing foot) going forward first followed by the crutch on the functional side then finally the uninjured foot moving to or through.

Had Foot infusion surgery six weeks ago, this Monday I can bare weight as tolerated. Without crutches can I use a walker instead with this video?

Thanks it was very usefull

I suspect you know this but demonstration down the first step did include some weight bearing on the affected side: I suspect you were trying to have her be NWB as she was in subsequent steps?

The section on toe touch weight bearing is wrong - the patient in this video is doing is more partial weight bearing / heel touch. This is not toe touch weight bearing

Crutch should be on non-involved side(left) Up with the good down with the bad.

2point and 4 point seem very similar

If you don't know wb status on pwb you DON'T DO TREATMENT. GET THE % FROM THE MD!!!

Ahh
