The cane is a technical aid for mobility. It is used to facilitate walking, increasing stability and reducing fatigue or load when walking on the lower limbs, as it relieves the weight of the affected leg. The use of a cane allows the user to maintain independence in moving around and helps to maintain a good, dynamic and active quality of life.
In order for the cane to fulfil its purpose, it is necessary to make good use of it. To do this, the following must be taken into account: The grip on the handle of the cane must be appropriate. The user should feel comfortable and secure in the support of the hand, choosing the grip that best suits his or her needs. The measurement should be from the wrist to the ground in a vertical position. In other words, the optimum height is the height from the greater trochanter to the ground. In addition, the state of the support point should be checked frequently, because once the rubber starts to wear out, the risk of falling increases and the cane loses grip and therefore stability.
