What is a Quad Cane?
A quadripod cane, or a quad cane, for short, is referred to as such due to its four legs (‘quad’ is a latin root word for four). A 4 legged cane starts off as a regular cane, but a few inches to the bottom, it features a base with four prongs. The prongs feature rubber tips, for optimal traction.
A four prong cane will provide more support than a single tip cane can. It is definitely the most stable, sturdy cane available today. A 4 point cane has more of an ability to hold weight than any other kind of cane.
When to Use a Four Prong Cane
Quad or four prong canes are used by patients following surgery, and by seniors and disabled individuals. Using a quad cane not only provides the user with support; it can also allow them to move around without putting pressure on injured areas. A four legged cane can also be used following bedrest, during the time period where one is redeveloping his walking or balance skills. One who uses a walker and is progressing in physical therapy may be told to upgrade to a quad walking cane. Read more
