The Role of the Surgical Dressing Trolley in Patient Care

Before heading to the store, it’s essential to understand the different types of crutches available. The most common types include underarm crutches (axillary crutches) and forearm crutches (also known as elbow crutches or Canadian crutches). Underarm crutches are typically used for short-term injuries and provide stability and support, while forearm crutches offer more independence and are often preferred for longer-term use. Additionally, some crutches are lightweight, height-adjustable, and come with specialized features such as ergonomic grips for increased comfort.
