T10

Just a little confusion as to what this means ? ..

1st measure the crutch length
get patient to stand up against the bed with the assistants help as the physio measures from the ulnar styloid to the ground.
the patients arms must be flexed to approx.15 degrees
the handle should be equal to this height ..

Thankyou ...
Steph :)
