Crutches: Research made it possible to walk again
The elbow crutch "Ingrid" was put in production in 2008 by Popab - more than 20 years after the end of the project, and it is still unique. This case shows how thorough research has the potential to generate innovations that last over time. In the 1970s it was not unusual for people to wrap their cane handles in old socks to ease the pain in their hands. The elbow crutch is a result of extensive research where Ergonomidesign studied how people actually used their crutches. It turned out that there was a need for a completely new type of crutch for people with a slow and cautious gait pattern. Read more >
