Abstract

We have developed two types of technical aids for standing up. Commercially made walkers were utilized for making these aids. The first type is a device for standing up and transfer, the other is for standing up and ambulation. The good stability and reliability provided by these two devices during standing up gave the patients confidence. As a result, the patients could stand up independently and then, they could transfer to a wheel chair or ambulate with the walker smoothly. These technical aids seem useful for patients with difficulty in standing up.
