Weighting Crutches is a device that replaces the cap of the crutch and allows the patient to measure the percentage of weight supported by his/her injured leg while walking. Rehabilitation would be significantly improved, as the patient could follow the physiotherapist's instructions precisely and gradually increase the weight supported.
Other uses : patient data history, physiotherapist's remote monitoring of the patient, patient's insurance control.
