What is the Drive Medical Platform Walker / Crutch Attachment?

This device, the Drive Medical Platform Walker / Crutch Attachment, is an attachment for both walkers and crutches, used by patients who have trouble gripping the handles on their mobility aids. This device can be used with adult and junior walkers work with the standard platform attachment, and heavy-duty walkers work with the bariatric platform attachment. This device only has a weight of two pounds.

The standard platform attachment is the only one that works with the crutch brackets. Meaning that this device can only be used with crutches in its standard form. The height of this device ranges from thirty-seven inches to fifty-three inches, and this product can handle a weight of up to three hundred pounds. The crutches this attachment works with are standard aluminum crutches.

The bariatric platform attachment has a height ranging from forty and a half inches to fifty-five inches and can handle a weight of five hundred pounds. The bariatric form is designed for heavy-duty walkers and cannot be used with the crutch brackets. This attachment can’t be used with crutches as a result of this.

This device offers several helpful features, starting with an armrest that cradles the forearm. This cradle is made of a soft vinyl padding designed especially for the comfort of patients. It also has a large top bracket that helps hold patients’ arms in place over the handgrip grip. Finally, an adjustable strap that helps hold the patients’ arm in place. These features are all in place to help keep patients as mobile as they would like to be.

All other attachments to this device or that can be used along with the device are sold separately.
