Assistive Devices/Gait Patterns | 3-, 2-, & 4-point Patterns

The video tutorial covers various gait patterns using bilateral assistive devices, focusing on three point, modified three point, two point, and four point gait patterns. It explains the requirements for each pattern, such as upper extremity strength, and the specific indications for their use, like non weight bearing or partial weight bearing. The tutorial also highlights the differences between these patterns and their applications for individuals with different mobility needs.

Discuss the importance of upper extremity strength in performing gait patterns with assistive devices.
